I shed a few tears even though I knew, from your warnings, what must be coming. I don't think someone who hasn't been through this could have written it with the depth of feeling you've managed, I cried for you as much as Ginny and Harry...so much struck a chord but when Ginny is pleading for Hope to move for mummy I could really really feel her depth of despair, knowing what had happened but not yet really believing. After sailing in blissful happy ignorance through my first pregnancy and then having a close friend gave a still birth literally days before full term my next was spent in constant anxiety lying down at points in the day willing and pleading with baby to move so I knew she was still alive.

Author's Response: Writing this was the final breath I needed to start to live again. It was years coming, and painful to share, but I think and hope I have given a view into a world that is so often not talked about. Thank you for your kind words.

You are a brave woman. Thank you for sharing your pain, but, more than that, thank you for sharing your strength.

Author's Response: Thank you, I appreciate your kind words.

This is why we write. We take the pain, we turn it into words, and we share it with others. It helps, if only a little. Incredibly powerful chapter, and one that brought a tear to even my eye. I think the part with them not wanting to let go of Hope's tiny, still body was the hardest part. A wonderful piece of writing that makes me feel guilty that you didn't win the 'drama' category in the Trinket Awards. I did vote for you, I promise.

Author's Response: Yes, it's a gift and a curse in being a writer. I haven't had time to read so I haven't read your current story, but knowing your other work I'm sure you deserved the win. I'm not someone who wins many awards, so it doesn't really surprise me. I'd have been very shocked to win again (had my first win ever this last round of STA's) after where I took this story. I appreciate the vote, though. I did what I meant to with this chapter. I was worried that I might not have, but to the best of my ability I showed what it's like to lose a baby. I can breathe a sigh of relief, finish the rest of the story, and move on to less traumatic fluff in the sequels.

A very difficult chapter, I know how bad it hurt to lose a baby early on, I cannot imagine having lost a child later in the pregnancy. Or losing an older child. My thoughts hopes and wishes go out to all who have ever lost a child no matter when. words cannot describe the heartache, grief and loss. I hope writing this helps you through your loss.

Author's Response: I don't think it hurts less when it's early on. I think it's just different, not less. Different things hurt differently, but the loss of your child hurts the same. I'm sorry for your loss. The writing definitely helped me to keep living, something I'd struggled to do for years.

We knew it was coming and I thought I was prepaired but I still ended up crying through the second half of this chapter. The picture you painted of Harry and Ginny's devistation at the loss of their daughter was just heartbreaking. Probably one of the most powerful pieced of fanfic I have ever read.

Author's Response: Thank you. I tried my best to show what it felt like, although parts were fit just for this story. The emotions were real. I'm not sure I could have fully prepared anyone, but I did try.

A difficult but well done chapter. "Ask not for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee"

Author's Response: Yes indeed.

Thankyou for sharing this heartache with us.
It is devastating to have a miscarriage. Whereas, it wasn't as far along as you, I lost one early on. The grief was hard then. Being this far into a pregnancy and losing the baby would be unimaginable. Support and love from family and friends help but it doesn't take the pain away, completely. Eventually, we pick ourselves up and look to the future.
I hope writing this helps you over your grief. Bless you.

Author's Response: I believe, and have said more times than I can count, that it doesn't matter as much when you lose a child as that you've lost a child. I think, in my case, knowing I would make it past the first trimester just prolonged the agony of waiting to see when I'd miscarry. I didn't fully let go that my 6th child (3rd living) would actually live until he was about 14 months old. It has helped me more than I could have ever imagined. I'm so, so sorry for your loss. I get it, and it's helpful to know we aren't alone and to talk about it.

An amazing chapter. There are so many things I 'd like to say and I just can't get them to paper (well screen) but I heartily agree with all the reviews on here about how you wrote this. Am I 'm absolutely sure there are some angels looking down at you who are extremely proud. Best wishes.

Author's Response: Thank you. It's rewarding (but not in the positive way) that I have been able to tell the story well enough that people can get it. It's definitely been a roller coaster for me.

There are no words.... this is just so hard.

Author's Response: Yes, it's really, really hard. I am relieved (in a very weird, unexplained way) that I did what I wanted (or so it seems from the feedback) and gave everyone a taste of the pain.

I admit to being a miserable 68 year old bloke - but the tears were rolling down my face and splashing on my knee. We should be grateful for the good things we do have.

Author's Response: It definitely made me appreciate my life more, and my children who are alive.



Reviewer: mwinter Signed Date: 2014.11.09 - 01:39PM Title: Chapter 19

Awaiting more.

Author's Response: Thanks!

I have always sald that it is a good story when it makes me cry. I had to stop a few times to finish the chapter. It is terrible to have this happen. I have only experienced this when my best friend lost one of her babies. In this chapter I felt the pain the family was feeling. Thanks for sharing this incredible story.

Author's Response: I hoped to be able to convey how painful it is, so others could see and empathize when a family went through it. I'm so sorry for your best friend. It's a truly awful thing to have happen, and far too often people don't talk about it.

Thank you for the warnings --from several chapters back-- about the contents of this chapter: I'm sure it helped all of us to be as prepared for this sad event as it is possible to be.

You've taken an extraordinarily painful event and presented it with grace and sensitivity. Your use of this fic to confront and address your own unimaginable pain is quite simply heroic. Dumbledore would have been proud. I"m sure I speak for many of your readers when I say that we are honored that you have shared --and will continue to share-- this with us.

Author's Response: Thank you. I definitely struggled for a long, long time to come to grips with sharing it. I want to share, but at the same time I don't because it is so painful.

Ten stars doesn't come close. I don't have the right words, but I'm sure your boys are proud of their mum.

Author's Response: Thank you. I hope so too.

That was so painful to read. I'm so sorry for your losses and hope your writing heals in the way you need it to.

If not for your trigger warnings I would have been thrown for a loop. It was so sudden with the last few peaceful chapters leading up to it and everything seemed to be progressing so nicely. Poor Ginny seems to have just been thrown into labour without warning or preparation on top of such a devastating shock, without her even processing what was happening to her body. What a terrifying and traumatic experience.

Thank you for sharing. You are really brave to publish your intense experiences, even through a different character. Thank you :)

Author's Response: I did throw her completely in to the fire. That happens a lot with miscarriage. Thank you for your kind words.

What a heartbreaking chapter. I'm so sorry for your loss and I hope that writing this has helped you. The emotions and everything in this chapter were conveyed so well. It's not often that a story or a chapter gets me like this so I can only imagine how it is for you. It's beautifully written though.

Author's Response: It has helped me, more than anything else has before. I think I needed to step outside of my own head and get it out so that I could start to move on. Thank you for your kind words.

Very good and very sad chapter. It's indescribable pain for them. Hope they can find solace in each other and their loved ones. I'm very sorry for you too. My brother and his wife experienced that. They lost three baby in early second trimester, two boys and a girl. But after that they have three children (two girls and a boy) and all of them very healthy. Hopefully you'll too.

Author's Response: I have three living sons. I had two, then lost my three, then had another who lived. I've had my miracle baby, although I think all of them are miracles in their own way. I'm so sorry for your brother and his wife. It is devastating.
