I'm glad Debbie is finally seeing reality, and i'm glad some of them can work towards seeing her again, but she isn't worthy of full forgiveness... I'm glad they stood their ground!

Great update.  I hope you read the other review message I left for you.  So glad you are going to finish this story.  I wondered about you leaving it.  The main thing is to take care of yourself.  I will read it to the end.



Author's Response:

Thank you! I just read all the reviews I got lately. Since I'm doing a little better and stay focused a bit longer without asking for a gun every few minutes I thought I'd better use this lucky time to check my reviews and respond to as many as possible. I'll talk to my doctor on Friday about FEVER FEW. Maybe it's available in Germany.

It's good to have another chapter.  Amazing that Deb has made some good strides here.  Your reactions of each character are perfect.  I'm going to have to reread this again soon.



Author's Response:

Thank you. I'm glad you're still reading even though I let you down lately. Since I'm doing a little better I'll try to write the epilogue and as much as possible for the sequel and one shots I've planned for this one.

Thank you Sandy, I have enjoyed this story and look forward to the rest of the story. So sorry to hear about your dog passing. I hope you have lots of fun with the new puppy. Also so sorry to hear about your health. You need to take care of you!! We will all wait patiently for the next chapter and future stories as you are an excellent story teller.

Not surprised by the reactions from everyone they are doing what's best for them at this time.

Deb has grown and change thanks to counseling but some things just can't be forgiven or forgotten with just a simple I'm Sorry and tears.

Maybe with time Brian can stomach being in the same room with her but until then Brian has to put himself and his family first, and his heart needs time to heal (If It Can?) And Brian is not ready to forgive.

Still Too Soon.

Sorry about your loss it is so sad to lose a pet.

I hope your doctors are able to help you with your migraines, take care of you first, your loyal fans will wait :)

Besides I like speculating between chapters makes it more fun ;)

Hello My Sandy Darling! 

First, let me just speak life and encouragement to you. I understand more than one might think about those blasted migraines. I suffer with Mixed Migraine Headache Disorder, in which I have a ull headache everyday but can get up to twenty different kinds of headaches all at once. It is truly a debilitating illness, and one not to be taken lightly at all. The pill I take when the headaches get out of control puts me to sleep for more than 12 hours, so I don't like to take it too often. I mean seriously! Who the hell has time to be sedated that long? I have to be able to move and groove at will; my determination to be SuperChelle demands it! But I'm also learning to listen to my body before it makes the decision to slow down for me. Case in point is that I'm still recovering from the abdominal surgery I had a few months ago, but am not progressing as fast and as well as I would like. In fact, a few more issues have cropped up and I have to also focus on them before they get worse than they are already.

So I said all of that to say this: Take each moment as it comes, Babe. Take care of yourself in whatever manner it is that you need to because YOU ARE IMPORTANT! I had to adopt that thought recently, realizing that while I was being all things to all people and their situations, I had nothing left to give to myself. So nurture yourself physically, emotionally, mentally and spirtually. Make that your habit so that you can not only get better, but live better. I LOVE YOU!

Now onto my review: Can I just tell you that this chapter inspired me in ways that I cannot give voice to? It was such a profound turning point in each of their lives, not only as a group but individually as well. It takes a lot to own up to your faults and failures, and Debbie is doing so with good grace thus far. It also takes a lot to be completely honest in what your dealbreakers are as opposed to existing within the expectations of others are. Ted, Mel, Brian and Justin demonstrated that thought remarkably here, as did Ben and Hunter. Some acknowledged that they needed more time, while others just simply said 'Never again will you be allowed to do this to me, Debbie.' In a lot of ways, this provided closure to each of the people around that table (and in the bushes...LOL I actually had to laugh at Ben and Hunter because it's something my dad did for my youngest sister once).

I am sooooooo looking forward to more of this story. This is definitely one of my absolute favorites, and you've done such an amazing job with it. And YES, I did the Fangirl SQUEE when I saw the notification for the update. I've been hooked since word one, and will happily wait for the next installment!

HAPPY WRITING, MANY HUGS and WELL WISHES,

~Nichelle

I have not read the chapter yet, but I wanted to send this message and hope you read your reviews quickly.  First of all, so sorry to hear that you lost Shiloh.  It is so difficult losing a pet.  But most importantly,  I am not a doctor, but please ask your doctor about the supplement FEVER FEW.  My sister and I suffered from migraines for years.  Hers much worse than mine and I was told about FEVER FEW.  I took it as directed and have not had a migraine in at least 10 years.  My sister thought about it because they had tried everything including ear surgery.  Finally, she was desperate and decided to try it and she has also been migraine free for years.  It is available at nutrition stores and some pharmacies.  I worked in Walgreens pharmacy for years and asked our pharmacist about it.  He said try it, if it works, then you are fine taking it.  Just a suggestion but it worked for us.



Author's Response:

Thank you so much for your kind words and advice! I'm taking new meds that work well with the other meds I have to take daily and so far it works. Been relatively pain free since Friday and I hope it stays like that. Also, I'm not sure if we have FEVER FEW here in Germany. I've written it down and will talk to my doctor this Friday at my next appointment. I'm sure she knows a bit more about it :) Thank you.
