Great chapter.  I'm so glad E & B talked.  Looking forward to seeing him court her

For some reason I just loved this line at the end:

"Damnit, Bella, don't pass out..."

 

haha!

Hi April,

First Best wishes on your feeling better.  I am sorry to hear you hurt your shoulder I know it must be painful and a bother especially with kids!  I hope you feel better.  :)

 

Thanks for the chapter!  I was thrilled - as usual.  your are a really good writer.  Each chapter you not only mesmerize me but you are pulling me into your way of thinking!! I actually now want Bella & Ed together!  shocking I know lol!  Can I say again how I love Carlie.  Thanks for this wonderful story.

:D Chea

How ironic...I'm starting this story on MY birthday! :D

 

Woohoo! Kisses for Edward! Finally on the path to healing ALL wounds. I know how near death experiences can put things into perspective from personal experience. 

Step one on a long road to recovery, and I am not talking about his physical one, just there relationship. Its going to difficult. Then add the grump of his addiction and therapy etc. Good luck you two

It's good to see what the rest of the family is thinking

LOVE!  LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!  (I'm singing this, in case you can't tell.)  LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!

The only thing I didn't love about this chapter was Sam's character.  I have a recently turned five-year-old and they don't speak quite that eloquently, and in full sentences, and in calm matter-of-fact voices.  Maybe some do...mine never did.  But then, mine has never had to deal with the things that this poor dear has, so...  Hmm...

I love that Bella has reconciled with Alice!  I love that she through a fit when Jenks came in, speaking about living wills!  I LOVE that we got to read about him opening his eyes!  :D   YAY!

 

I LOVE SOMP! I just found it Friday night and read all weekend. I finished chapter 35 this morning at 1:00am and only got 3 1/2 hours of sleep. I then read chapter 36 while doing my hair this morning. Yeah, you can say you sucked me in. Keep the chapters coming! :)

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

i wanna know what happens next!!! >< Update asap!! 

I very much like both your Bella and your Edward in this story.  I guess I'm ridiculously forgiving of Edward's wayward behavior.  Edward seems sincerely contrite.  I also do not prescribe to the notion that Bella should have random hook ups to even the score.  I actually think she has the upper hand in this because she has remained faithful to her own values.  I do sometimes find Bella to be a bit of a martyr in her thinking processes, and that does annoy me, but that was particularly true in Stephanie Meyer's Twilight saga.  I think you have captured the essence of these two characters even though there are no vampires.  Edward is out of character in that he's such a womanizer, but he doesn't seem as horrible in the later depictions than how was described in the earlier chapters.  I struggle understanding why a doctor, even one as wealthy and charitable as Edward, is so frequently in the society pages, but I guess that's my own lack of understanding high society.  Anyways, thought I'd share my perspective.  I am very much looking forward to where it goes from here, now that healing seems to be beginning in so many forms.  Blessings, on your writing and all else.  Looking forward to more.

All of the Cullens are thrilled with Bella's reaction towards Edward with her feelings, just not the circumstances.  It's a shame that it took such a drastic measure for Bella to own up her feelings for Edward.  His near death (death-heart stopping) condition before Bella would drop her ice control and let her true inner feelings show. After Edward has already told her how he feels towards her.  But Carlisle's reaction to Bella standing up to Jenks during the reading of will and living will a portion of him was delighted that she was fighting fiercely that no one was pulling the plug until there was no hope.  When Carlisle saw Edward's heart rate jump gave him hope Edward knew what was occurring around him. Emmett such a sweetheart wanted to make sure Bella was taken care of giving her his share of grandfather's inheritance.  That's a huge sum of money to give as a gift.  Emmett saving all those items of Edward and Bella being together from Edward's destructive behavior will be priceless to Edward when returned.  Esme is right parents should not have to bury their children, God willing I will never know that feeling either.  It's hard thinking of them leaving home and starting lives of their own much less leaving this earth forever.  Just waiting and worrying whether Edward will pull out or not especially knowing he had crashed more than once.  Especially after Carlisle was removed from the operating room due to his being overwhelmed by his son on the table.  Rosalie's got the right idea as well as the rest of the Cullens Edward once well will be pursuing Bella with no holds barred if Bella will allow it.  She has to let him know it he has a chance.  He'll woo her until the cows come home.  The man is a born romantic.  He only has to listen to his heart to do and say the right things.  Demetri said if Edward didn't woo her, he would go back into the ring as competition.  I don't Demetri will have to worry about Edward not taking the gaunlet and take his second chance on making Bella his girl now and in the future.  Looking forward to next week.

Hope you had a great weekend with hubby.
