This story was astonishing. Tense, complicated, passionate, and heart-wrenching. My throat clammed up entirely and tears stung my eyes as I read about Harry sitting beside Teddy's bed. So very topical too.
I whipped over to your lj to see where you lived, and was astonished that you weren't British - I can only say, as a Brit, that all your research has really paid off, and I really appreciate it.
Thank you - a truly excellent story. I'll be rereading this.
