Hi again! I really love that you‘ll bring up former topics from the show which in my opinion they sadly left unfinished! Can‘t wait to read these! Yeah, and sometimes some stories wouldn‘t leave me alone either – sometimes in a positive way, then it‘s a good thing, but sometimes it‘s very hard if you can‘t get your thoughts away from a story, which disturbed or hurt you in some ways or presented the characters, mainly Brian or Justin or their relationship in a way you totally disagree. I know it‘s crazy how some stories can get on your nerves because in the end it‘s „just“ fiction…
This chapter… As sad as it is, but I really love that they made this decision together and most important after they really talked it though. This is also something which I missed in the show! But yeah, I know, same old story – it was a TV show… You nearly made me cry with this scene when they told their boys. My heart really broke for Luke and Gus. As always – very well written, one can feel their emotions, the sadness and dispair. I'm just happy and grateful - even if the way to get there is going to be damn hard and painful - this story does not end with a death! Warmest regards!!!

Yeah, but that's what makes it good "fiction" - that it touches us and stays with us even after it's over.
And yes, some things never getting mentioned again just annoyed the hell out of me and I figured I'd try to give those things some mention in my stories to give them the ending/credit they deserve ;) I hope people won't be disappointed!
This universe is supposed to show a more grown up Brian and Justin compared to the show, so hopefully they would have learned a couple of things about relationships by now, mainly how important communication is ;) And I am pretty sure that after everything they've been through, they both know by now that they can't make big decisions on their own, but need to make them together.
Yes, the time for tissues isn't over yet, but as you mentioned, there is no death in my story. I couldn't do that...
Thanks for your comment :)

This chapter was simply gut-wrenching but beautifully done. I am currently supporting my dearest friend through her battle with cancer and you have captured the fear, despair and hope that makes most days an emotional roller coaster. Luckily I had the tissues readily to hand.
Author's Response:
Oh, I am so sorry to hear about your friend. I hope that she'll keep fighting and that she'll win the batte in the end! Cancer really sucks...
Unfortunately, the time for tissues isn't quite over yet :(
Thanks for your comment!

I notice that they didn't tell the kids about the doctor wanting to end baby M's life. That's a something that they didn't need to know.
Author's Response:
No, they didn't mention that. In fact they didn't mention M at all, which has come up in the following chapter :(
And you're right, the boys didn't need to know in detail what the doctor originally said. Sometimes it's better to protect them!
Thanks for your comment!

So heartbreaking. Wonderful writing as usual. It is like torture waiting for each new update. Using up more tissue each update.
Author's Response:
It is quite heartbreaking and I made myself cry quite a bit while writing this story :(
I am sorry, but the time for tissues isn't over yet :(
Thanks for your comment!

Poor kids: what a nightmare they are living! Brian and Justin had a little more time and they made plans, so they are, together, on the way to fight this awful desease while Gus and Luke took the news as a full blow.
Author's Response:
Yes, poor kids indeed. At least they have a loving family around them that will surely support them :)
