Reviews For For Love of Family

Harry learning to walk again is wonderful for all of them. Any kind of disability or serious chronic illness is so hard on every member of the family.

Author's Response: Harry needed a happy ending to his ordeal. He will never walk like he did before the accident, but now he has the freedom to choose whether he walks or rides.

It was sweet that Rose was cncerned about what her dad would think, and I thought her mum's reply was lovely. I especially liked how she said she'd love to know how the day went if Rose was happy to tell her.

I found the imaginary conversation betwwen Harry's brain and the rest of his body really funny but sweet at the same time....I loved the hand's comments..."already there mate!"

And of course it is not surprising I'm sure for me to tell you how lovely it is to hear how Harry's children are affected by him "walking" again...and of course the news that he is smiling his special lopsided smile at his wife:)))

Author's Response: Rose is still very much a "daddy's girl" when it comes to her relationship with her father. She doesn't want to disappoint him, but at fourteen, she still needs his approval; that's why she is so concerned. I think it highly likely that Rose will share her day with Hermione because of how close a relationship they have. I'm glad you liked the imaginary conversation. It's one of my favorite parts of this chapter and when a reader pointed out that I'd neglected to report Lily, Albus and James' reactions to the news, I immediately added the reaction section. And just like my son has caught his father looking at me with his special smile, so have Harry's children caught the special looks he's given Ginny. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me.

Cute chapter. Looks like it's getting back to normal...

Author's Response: Yes, things are definitely getting back to normal... or as normal as they can be for Harry and his family. Thanks for reading.

Love this chapter. Thank you so much for the update. Deep down, I admit, I always suspected Harry would start walking again. Looking forward to the next instalment :)

Author's Response: After all this time, the characters need some happiness back in their lives, and that includes Harry overcoming yet another obstacle in his life and learning to walk again. There's only one more chapter which will be posted on Thursday. Thanks for reading and writing to me.

Arnel,

I am so so glad that my review inspired the added section with the kids. It means a lot to me that I held any part in your creation of this wonderful story, and after reading, I'd have to say I think this chapter just went from good to great. James's reaction was priceless, and I never fail to smile by reading how good the three young Potters get along. Two big thumbs up your way, and a new rating. :)

Author's Response: hpforever85, I take my readers' reviews very seriously because they tell me if I've been successful with my storytelling. Your suggestion added to the overall success of the chapter and I'm very grateful you made the comment you did. I also appreciate the two thumbs up, which made me smile. Until next Thursday, then...

What a nice and funny and hopeful chapter for us all here at the end. Harry's conversation with his body had me chuckling at the screen. I'm so happy and relieved that there is such promise for him. The end was also lovely, with all the Potters having a nice holiday together and things really feeling normal for them again. I will say that I felt a bit was missing for this chapter, though. I think it would have been wonderful to have seen the children's reactions to the news on their dad's progress. We saw so much of that in the past with this story, that I felt it was lacking a bit without it here.

Looking forward to your final post. I am very sad your story is coming to a close.

Author's Response: I want you to know that this review helped me resolve an issue I had about this chapter. As satisfied with it as I was, I knew there was something missing. When I read your review and you had wanted to know how Harry's children reacted to Ginny's letter, I realized that scene was exactly what was missing. I hope you get the chance to go back to the chapter an read the result of your review. I hope you enjoy the new section. Thanks for reading and reviewing so faithfully. See you next week...

Very nice. The pieces are starting to fall back together. Well done.

Author's Response: Yes, this was the last of the wrap-up chapters that attempted to take care of all the loose ends and possibly further a few so that there would be more to write about when I start the first one-shot in this universe. Thanks for reading.

I hope not just "one" last evening meal together. Plenty more meals and lots of sequels. Otherwise I will greatly miss this particular group of families (even the Malfoys!).

Author's Response: The comment about "one last evening meal together" was meant only for that holiday. You are right that there will be plenty of meals and sequels in this universe. I've grown very attached to these characters and want to explore them further. Thanks for reading and reviewing so often.

Awwww. This is just so sweet. I am rolling in chocolate!

Author's Response: I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Chocolate? Cool!

How sweet! Loved seeing the Potters altogether and happy. I think I was holding my breath as Harry was trying to walk and loved the conversation between his body parts lol. Hope there is a one shot of Rose and Scorpius at Hogsmeade. Loved seeing Hermione and Rose's relationship through their letters. Love this story, going to miss it!

Author's Response: My friend who has been helping me with the medical perspective of this story tells me that she often has such conversations with her various body parts. She says it helps her focus on the movement she needs to make while adding a touch of humor. As for the characters other than Harry, the only way I'll be able to post one-shots of the Hogwarts students is if there's a major Harry/Ginny factor within the plot. I'm so glad you have been a faithful reader. I'll let you in on a little secret: the Epilogue has been finished for two weeks and I've been missing the story since I wrote the last sentence. Thank you for all of your great reviews.
