So glad they will be back together next chapter. There are no adequate words for this chapter. You brought me to my knees.
Through my tears sending you a hug
Author's Response: thank you so much my dear. she has so much to get through. but i would be cruel to all involved if Rob didn't make an appearance, right?
she needs him, and he needs to know...
thank you so much for the hug... you all have truly overwhelmed me. thank you for that.

Claire certainly didn't disappoint s, she was everything and more that Jen needed. Nick is trying, and it appears with no motive, other than genuine caring. I'm glad you didn't write it such that Rob lost it when he found out his mom was with her. That fact actually seemed to calm him down which was nice. It strikes me how much Jen has been through, and I'm so glad that you have taken the time to write so much about how she feels and her past. It's beyond devastating really, and like your wrote a long time ago, she's been through so much yet she is such a warm caring compassionate person. Looking forward to their reunion and the whole discussion with Rob, I already know you will write it beautifully and I can hardly wait to read it. Thanks for updating so promptly. Mwah.
Author's Response: You know i love the Patti clan...and Clare. you know she is a fierce mother when it comes to her kids... she is exactly what jen needs, not just as the loving support, but the strong foundation that is needed to pick oneself up and fight. We'll see how Rob reacts when they are all back together, will he be upset with his mother for agreeing with Jen to hide the truth from him? all for his job? hmmmm.
Jen's a survivor, but sometimes, it is just too much... and you need that support to get back up... she is such a warm and compassionate person, thinking of others before herself, even when she is crumbling in despair. she'll need a lot of support for all of this.
Nick... he does genuinely care. he's an ass, but he also knows that Jen is a vital part in his clients life. he is trying.
thanks so much my dear. the fast update is all due to my fab beta, and lots and lots of coffee.
more soon!

Oh my! That chapter was much tougher than the last...another round of kleenex, please...but oh so very authentic Steph.
and go Mama Clare! Loved seeing her pull Jen together and also give Nick a going over.....
Can't wait for more....and for them to finally be reunited!
Author's Response: thanks hun.so glad it struck you.
Mama Clare... she is just the thing Jen needs to realize that mothers come in all kinds... that birthing a child does not make you a mother... the years of nurturing and caring for those you love are just as important...and Jen needs someone to protect her, hold her up and open her eyes.
thanks so much my dear.

I can't do another long review, I'm just so spent! What with this story and a real busy RL at the moment, I can barely see to type!
I LOVE CLARE! I'd love to have her for my 'other ' Mum, she is so calming and giving and yet strong too. I can just see her later doleing out the tough love to Jen to help her recover and get her act together.
Thank goodness Jen has spoken to Rob now. He must have been frantic. (I think his POV of the last day or so would be just incoherent babble!) They are going to have a lot to talk about when they are back together. Stepping away from the deep nature of the chapter for a moment, Jen should definetly think about NOT telling Rob that too much sex may have caused the infection. He will never have sex with her again and then where would this story be?! Is that insensitive of me? I can't help it. The Rob and Jen together times are fantastic!
So glad to see Nick making an appearence again, and thats something I didn't think I would ever say!
And it is good to see Jen working through things in her head even if everything seems gloomy to her at the moment. I have faith that she will pull through.
On a much lighter note: I have just discovered Jens photobucket account (I'm a bit behind the times!) and have since spent many happy hours with Rob! I'm also feeling somewhat smug 'cos I think I probably have more pics in mine!
Love you Steph, see you again soon.
Author's Response: {{hugs}} i understand my dear... it has been a tumultuous week... so big hugs to you.
i am terrified to do Rob's pov in OTT of these days not gonna lie.. he will be a handful...
can i tell you how sad i was when the sex thing came out of my research... can you imagine the guilt Rob would have... no... i won't go there... but i had to whisper it as it is more than likely how she developed the infection... no more tub time... and while Jen may understand the reasons for the staph infection, i don't think she would have the heart to tell him just for the guilt alone...
Imagine... she has only had 1 partner in her life besides Rob... and then to have the guilt of having great sex for fear of developing an infection... tragic... no...they will have enough issues with getting back to intimacy without that guilt...
that and i am really missing the lemons.... did I say that? i can't help it. i am...
Ah Nick... yeah... we'll see him a bit more... wonder how Rob will deal with him....
Jen is a survivor, she jsut has to work thru the issues she ran from...
mmmm. the photobucket... more than jen?! wow... now that i have to see!
thanks my deat!

I really don't know what to say. This last few chapters have made me go through a range of emotions that are just staggering. I could really feel her pain. That's a hard thing to do for an author, but you my dear have done it. I applaud you.
I feel so bad for Jen right now, but I am also enjoying (as bad as it sounds) learning about her history. It must be very hard for her, seeing this makes me sympathize.
I can't wait to read more!

Author's Response: thank you so much Em. it has been a rollercoaster ride for me. but it makes me hopeful that i can convey the hurt someone like Jen would feel thru this.
thank you. your words humble me so much...

Hi hun, I am reduced yet again, to tears. Memories that come crashing back to me in a way that they haven't in a long while. Thank God for Clare. Going through an experience like this alone, is overwhelming - you think there is no hope - you feel lost when the person you love is miles away and you can't bear to tell them over the phone.
Your words are heart wrenching, letting us feel what she feels, allowing us to grieve with her and hope for what might still be. She has to hang on to hope, to the fact that he loves her no matter obstacles are placed before them. At the end of the day, that's all that matters.
Thank you for your beautiful gift.
Much love,
Leslie

Author's Response: thanks so much my dear. she has a lot to get over. and the only way she will get through it is with support- family and medical.
hope and love and support from family will pull her out. so many flounder and let it drown them. but jen is a survivipr and with rob, and his love for her, she will get thru.
thanks my dear. your words bring me to tears. and inspire me to do more.

Shit. Wow. This is why I don't review - I never have the right words. I'm a reader, not a writer. But this was just incredible. I really wasn't interested in reading about real life Rob - I just like Edward. But this story was recommended by one of those others (wish I could remember which one). And you sucked me in right away. I swear some of you ladies (and men) should really write, not just fanfic. But I'm so glad you guys do write the fanfic. I'm so glad I found it - hours and hours of wonderful reading, escape, and fantasy (and often inspiration, *wink*).
I can't wait for more chapters. I hate it when I find a story I love before it's finished because I'm addicted. I need more - I'm just not satisfied until I can read it all. I've become a junkie checking my email everyday just for story updates - screw the bill pay reminders!
Author's Response: thanks so much my dear!
I am so glad you found this story, and thrilled that it sucked you in!
Always happy to supply inspiration *wink*

Lots of thoughts swirl around this chapter. Wow - the speed dial #2 went to Nick and he actually did the right thing. Calling Clare to come to LA for Jen was an ingenious solution. They love Jen and will know how to help Rob through this, too. Having Jen talk to Mike during her critical condition was interesting. All the hints you left - I though she was having signs of pregnancy, but they were so excessive and given her accident, that it didn't seem good. It will be interesting to see how you invision Rob's reaction when he learns about all of this.
Author's Response: thanks hun...
this was a very difficult chapter to post.
Nick- he and i have been on a very long uphill road to redemption... this entire sequence with him has been in my head very early on.
Jen and mikes converstaion... hehehe. the mind and spirit can do interesting things...
Rob... I'll let you see. i won't ruin.. but i will say i am terrified to write this for OTT... i'll have to step back for a few days before i think about putting thoughts down...

Just had a good cry. I understand the pain of a miscarriage I've had one. I also lost my son, Joseph was an almost seven month baby.He weighted only 2lbs.11ozs, Joseph lived for 15days.I still remember his corn yellow hair and his beautiful blue eyes. Today he might have lived but in 1978 chances of a baby that small were not real good. This was a wonderful chapter and I think N redemmed himself but Rob will know somethings up because of the way Nick ended the tex. Loved that he called Clare for Jen it's just whom she needs.I have faith the story will be great we all love Jen and Rob and know you will do right by them. I love your writting, you write from your heart and soul and we your readers can feel the love.Thank you for sharing your gift of telling a beautiful story with all of us. We love you too.
Author's Response: thanks so much pam.
i am so sorry for your loss. so many reasons for writing this chapter. to represent, to understand the loss, to have hope in medical advances.
my son and i would have both died if not for medical advances today. and for that i am so grateful.
oh i could hug you for noticing the text... {{HUG!}} but Nick is on his road to redemption, so true... its been a long road for us (i have had Nick's road planned for quite some time, and his actions here were very early laid out)

I won't lie and say that I wasn't dissapointed with the miscarrage but I agree with you that on this issue. We must remember that there is rarely the " Oh is a miracle" moments in these circumstances. I'm glad that Nick will maybe be able to redeem himself a little with helping her. Great chapter..as all the other ones that I've read and am embarrased that I've not reviewed until now. My excuse...... I just couldn't stop myself from hitting the "Next" button....I love your story.....
Author's Response: thank you so much.
i think it should be definitely disappointing that she lost it. It would be a beautiful experience for her to be able to have his child, just not so soon, and not without all the necessities of a very high risk pregnancy. sigh. there is hope tho.
Nick and I have been down a very long road to redemption, and i am so happy to see many of you looking at him with a little more hope and optimism.. not that i didn't enjoy the hatred...hehehe. but he is trying...

Just wanted you to know that I LOVE the story. I came across it a couple of days ago and have read through all 56 chapters... consumed it, really. It's fantastic. This last chapter must have been so difficult to write! But you did it. It's heartwrenching and honest. I've had a couple of horrendous miscarriages before having my 2 beautiful boys. I was tearful several times through the chapters but this one was so hard get through because I knew what was happening. I can't wait for more! You're awesome. Thank you!!
Author's Response: thank you so much and welcome!
consuming 56 chapters in a few days... wow! you really need an award. i am always amazed when i hear readers can get through this not so little story so quickly!
this chapter was incredibly difficult to write, and even more difficult to post, knowing so many readers were excited about the pregnancy they had guessed at. To know that there were many that would have personal experiences. It means so much to me that you got through the chapter, and are still excited about the upcoming chapters!

: Ok, I have no idea if I sent this the other day, I was in such a rush of emotions that and rush to submit it before leaving for work that i didnt check if I actually posted it and ONLY just checked my computer and had this page up still, anyway sorry if this is repeated. But congrads on an amazing chapter. Lets hope this works this time. Or if Im just repeating myself... :/
Oh my gosh,
this would have to be the most touching and heartfelt chapters, story I have come across. I wrote a review to you last chapter and expressed how much I love your story. This time however, I need to express my devotion to it.
There were clear signs that she was pregnant, and you made me feel so happy and excited that she could have been, but your AUs note abot how realistic you want it to be hit me. And its true, they have been together for a short time but you made me feel like its been two years not two months.
Your writting technique is amazing. Comepltely astounding. Seriously, I have never felt so connected to a fictional character before. You have this pure talent and kudos to you :)
You were right how this hits close to home for alot of people, I myself am only nineteen, and I love and adore children, even became a child care worker because of that passion. But I do have a certain condition were when the time is right for me, I will struggle to conceive children and carry them full term. That pain and hurt that I went through when I leanrt this, came rushing back when I read your this chapter. Of course, this isnt something people would braodcast, but you have this sense of real reality and I just wanted you to know that I may be young, but you had me absoloutley pulled and captivted. You had me go through my own emotins and Jen's.
Again, you're an amazing writter and should be VERY pleased with how great you really are and never doubt yourself with the story YOU have created. Well done indeed. Meagan.
Author's Response: hi Meagan,
thanks so much my dear.i am so glad you were touched by this chapter, it was important to me to offer a view of life for those that may not really understand what it could be like.
And it is too soon for them to be thinking family, but this event will help them to think more clearly about what their relationship really is.It will strengthen them.
It means so much to me to hear readers connect with Jen. She is every one of us in a way (if only for so many reasons) but to have people associate with her heart and emotions, it makes me feel really good.
sigh... i am overwhelmed by the reviews, I'm at a loss of coherent words really, so forgive me if this response sounds choppy or scattered.... it's been a wild few days...
thank you, so much for your story and for your wonderful words. They give me inspiration and strength to keep on writing!

sorry it has taken me so long to rview. i read it the other night, in bed, and didn't want to incur hubby's wrath with the "click click" of typing. he is getting sick, so i understand. i'm a hell of a dragonlady on a good morning, let alone a sleep-deprived-from-sickness one.
ANYWAYS... sigh. just... sigh. i wish i could hug you; this chappie must have been very hard to write. (i KNEW she was preggers, gosh darnit!) what a horrible, tragic thing to have happen. and possible daddy-rob. just... sigh again.
ok, here are a few of my favorite things:
1. ritz and nutella. steph, are you psychic or sumthin? b/c when i was preggers i would wake up and eat nutella straight from the jar. i don't even know how many family-size jars i went thru!
2. LOVED the drunken rob nighty-night vid. so sweet! i totally see him doing that!
3. hahahahahahahahaha! the underwear! hahahaha!
4. loved the description of his piano playing
5. sick of this play-by-play yet? tough.
6. nick? knock me over with a feather, why dontcha?
7. the rest of it i read again with bated breath, even though i knew what was going to happen! sheesh! and thank god for clare. mommaP will fix everything. and may even keep rob from freaking out a little. well, maybe not. she doesn't exactly work miracles. except for birthing rob and turning him into the perfect male specimen.
love it! can you believe you have written so many chapters already? i hope there are MANY more planned!
Author's Response: thanks my dear. can i actually tell you how refreshing it is to see some of the non dire things listed? sigh is right...
this was definitely hard to write, even harder to post, knowing how excited everyone was at the idea of little boys...but there is still hope...
oh nutella... always a good choice... mine was that and reeses peanut butter cups... and watermelon... not all together... but those were my staples...
the video... sigh... wish someone would do that for me...
oh the underwear... heeehe
the piano playing- so glad you liked that... sigh....
nick.... Nick and I have been on a looong road of redemption... this chapter has been formed for sooo very long, especialy Nick's role in it...
clare will be so important for Jen.she needs someone there, and absolutely, she will help with reigning in Rob, as much as that boy can be....
i am shaking my head at the thought of how many chapters i have written... never would have believed it... and many more to come (maybe not 56 more, but lots more)
thanks so much my dear. never worry about being late on reviewing, i am just so honored to be able to get such wonderful thoughts!

Wow Steph...you had me feeling all kinds of emotions in this chapter. I had to hold back the tears and sobs, as my youngest son and his friends are in side and playing as I read this. I will say that I must agree with Jen, that Rob not know about her just yet. Yes, Rob would walk of the set and give everything up to be with her. I just don't agree with her that he would later in life blame her for his losses. Rob doesn't see it like that. Even though I agree with Jen; she needs to tell our "boy" everything. I'm thankful that you had Nick get in touch with the Patty clan as Jen is in need of some major support, and mum is just the perfect support...as our Rob would be a mess.
Yes, Rob is young...how will he digest this info?
I'm trying to calm myself down for Rob's sake by having a glass of Jackson Triggs Ice wine...so smooth.
Hang in there RobJen we love you.
Thank you for taking care of your characters Steph, because we care a whole darn bunches for them!

Author's Response: thanks Liz.
Rob will be upset, maybe even angry at her for deciding where he should be rather than where he needs to be, but you are right, he would never blame her for the loss. but she needs to come clean and soon, it will only cause heartbreak...
oh my dear Nick... he and i have been walking down this road to be redeemed for a LOOONG time... i hope everyone sees he is hoping to make amends, not to be forgiven necessarily for what he did... but to be given the chance to make things right.
oh poor Rob... how will he digest?

Stef, this chapter broke my heart. It has taken an hour to respond. What heartbreak for Jen. The loss. twice. Rob will be devastated. Moreso, because he couldn't be there for her. Her feelings of loss this time is intensified because of selfimposed guilt. Her denying him the right to be there for her is an example of putting others needs before hers. I weep for them both. She needs warm arms and a compassionate mother figure. Thank you Nick.
I hope Clare demands the full story. And that she gets Rob. THey have all lost something precious and will need each other to heal.
This chapter was masterfully done. The hallucinations, the subconscious screaming to be heard. The present and the past colliding into a huge nightmare. Reality certainly came crashing down. Love your characters. Love the realities. I am in mourning for the baby that never will know two special people. I am in mourning for Jen and Rob. When GOd steps in there is always a reason. I trust your ability to help them weather this .
Linda
Author's Response: thank you Linda,
this will be a difficult struggle for them. so much pain and hurt and need for one another. She needs him more than ever... it will be a difficult discussion, but one that must be made...
Clare will be the mum she needs, has always needed. we'll see where Rob falls into that...
there is always a reason, and hopefully "Mike" is right... she will have another chance.
I am so overwhelmed by the love that has been laid out in so many reviews. it is overwhelming. Forgive me if this seems short. it is just so much... and i love you so much. thank you for trusting me on this path.

Ohhhh...So I just caught up again on one of my fave RP fics and...
This chapter has left me speechless...
I want to commend you on writing such a difficult topic with such heartbreaking intensity, honesty, sensitivity and emotion.
My heart ached the whole time I read this. Although it was so hard to read, I mean that as a compliment only in that it touched me, it really did. And writing that touches me, means something to me. You have that gift and that ability, and I applaud you.
I don't know how else to convey what I want to in words, I hope I have said enough. I trust you, I trust this story, I want to see you where you take this. And for what it's worth, I always read your notes at the bottom, and this time they were even more poignant.
Author's Response: thank you so much. i keep finding myself crying over and over again at the tremendous outpouring... forgive me if i ramble... there has been so much love and overwhelming emotions from this chapter, it has taken me days to get through the reviews.
and yours brings me to tears again. this was such a difficult chapter to post... so afraid of the reaction, and you all stagger me with the love. your responses MEAN so much to me. thank you for that. it truly gives me the strength to keep going and get through this.
thank you. and thank you for reading the notes at the end.. smiles... one never knows... i am so glad to know they mean something.
thank you for all you support.
more soon,always!
MWAH!

Thank you for this chapter, as you said at the end of your chapter, I really didn't want this to be a 'oh suddenly she's pregnant - it's a miracle' kind of story. I didn't think you would do that, and I'm so glad you went this way.
I also love that you're writing this from boy Jen and Robs POV and eventually I'll get to hear Robs thoughts on learning what Jen went through in this Chapter.
I never ever comment, but I had to after this one.
THANK YOU
Author's Response: thank you so much silentred.
i am so glad you understand the path we are going. it was a hard thing to post. and to have you come out to comment, I am so grateful and overwhelmed by the love and support from all of you.
i will be honest, i am terrified of writing this sequence in Rob's POV... it is going to be really tough. i still am trying to decide if i want to wait to do it, or do it while i am still so overwhelmed by the responses... we'll see i guess!
thank you, for reading, for supporting this little story that has grown so much because of the love the readers have expressed. thank you.
more soon!
MWAH!
