Hi! Again, what a wonderful sensitive chapter! And I feel so terribly sorry for them. If I were Justin, I wouldn't want to leave Brian's side, too - one night before this big surgery. On the other hand, yes, the kids need him too ...So, I really love your solution for this situation... That Justin can't fall asleep and sneaks up to Brian into the clinic. So cute...
"I just wish... that we... that I... hadn't wasted so much time," - so heartbreaking, but Justin's right, it doesn't matter anymore. The important thing is that they have found each other again. Unthinkable, if Brian would have been alone with the kids in this situation .... and it's good to see that the family's there for Justin... I'm so curious... Hopefully, the surgery went well!
No, I've really never been to a con. I guess, I've never been so much interested in the actors so far. It's more about the characters they represent and the story behind. And I've been always more crazy about musicians, but it's a long time ago since I've wanted autographs... You're also german so you know them... the last autograph I got, was from Campino and it had been in 1989... As I said, it's been a long time... Oh, now I feel very old :-) and I think, I'm also more crazy about Brian and Justin, but on the other hand, I would love to see Gale and Randy, but there are so many arguments against it... Like we both agreed, it didn't seem as if they had much fun so far on cons and I think it's a little bit too expensive just to sit in one room with them, asking questions, in which they probably not really interested in, making photos, getting autographs... Don't get me wrong, I can understand, that they want to get paid for it. On the other hand, as I said, it's London, it's not so far away... Yeah, Berlin, sounds a bit arrogant maybe, but I wouldn't want to live in Germany in any other city. But I'm very worried about the political situation in Germany. As soon as the AFD in Berlin or nationwide should become one of the strongest parties, one should seriously consider emigrating ... We wrote about this last year already, I must admit, I've forgotten, where did you come from?
Looking forward to Sunday :-) Warmest regards!

Yes, this chapter was to show that it's not only hard for Brian, but for Justin as well and unfortunately, this was not the last time he will feel torn between being there for Brian and being there for his children. It's not an easy situation for anyone involved :(
I am glad you liked Justin going back to the hospital - it was really the only thing that worked in my mind when I thought about the night before the surgery.
Being confronted by your own mortality makes you look back on life and brings your regrets to the forefront of your mind - poor Brian. Guilt is the last thing he needs on top of everything else, so it's a good thing that Justin immediately tried to dispel those feelings.
I like that the family is there for Justin - it shows how much they have all grown in recent years and how much they have all changed from what they were like at the beginning of this universe. They are a strong, united family unit now which is exactly what Brian, Justin and the boys will need to make it through this ordeal.
Oh, I love the Toten Hosen. I grew up with their music and Die Ärzte. Loved Campino soooo much and think he has a really charismatic voice. I really like their music and appreciate all their Anti-Nazi work!
I totally understand what you're saying about the AFD. It scares me shitless to see 23% of people in certain states voting for a right wing party. I can only shake my head and ask myself if they really went through the same school system I went through... Because if there is one thing I learned over and over in school it's: Nazis bad!
I am from a town called Nordhorn in the Grafschaft Bentheim in the North-West on the Dutch border. I went to University in Osnabrück which is about 80km away and the biggest town in our area. It's really the middle of nowhere *lol*
Thankfully the AFD only barely managed to make the 5% mark in our area and Münster, the only district in Germany where they didn't make the 5% in the last general election is very close by as well which made me kind of proud *lol* In our area the AFD isn't a big problem, but I have a cousin living in Halle/Saale and the things she tells me, it's scary... Scary times all over the world it seems :(
Well, more will be up tomorrow, hopefully that will give us a distraction from the sad state of reality for a while ;)

This chapter was the best. Justin being there for Brian while being with the kids was hard. Having Emmett, Deb and Jennifer show up to help keep Justin company was the best. I wonder if bringing the whole family to the closest hotel where nobody would be too far from the hospital might have worked. Thank you.
Author's Response:
Yes, it was a first glimpse of how hard this whole ordeal will not only be for Brian, but for Justin as well. This won't be the last time Justin will feel torn between his need to be there for Brian and his children. It is a really hard time for all of them :(
I don't think they would need hotels with Brian being in a local hospital. Everyone lives in the area and Pittsburgh is not that big and Britin not that far away. At least in my mind ;)
Thanks for your comment. More will be up soon :)

Leap of Faith! Fingers crossed!
Justin did the right things: going with his sons and then coming back to be with Brian; at least, they had some quiet time together before the D day.
It's great that Emmett, Jennifer and Debbie came to be with Justin: the wait will go faster.
Author's Response:
Yes, Justin sure did what was needed and it's good that Brian finally accepted it too.
We all know how horrible it is to just sit around waiting, not being able to do anything. It's a good thing Justin won't be alone for that.
More will be up soon. Thanks for your comment :)
