How sad that there is such a gulf between them that could so easily have been avoided. Damn the Winchester habit of keeping secrets. We saw how damaging it was for the boys during S4 - but they had a good teacher in John. Apologies to John fans. And poor Sam, still thinking that his family don't think he's valuable. I wonder how much of his desire to go to college was to prove that he could do something without his family's help. Or a wish for his dad to finally be proud and show it. Lovely, sad, touching story, hun. I don't know how I missed it for so long. Jules
Author's Response: Thanks again for every single reviews. I'm glad you liked. John taught his boys well about keeping secret, he just missed to tell them that they also keep people apart and obviously the lessons they learned never thought them this. Again, thanks, it means so much. Hugs, Vonnie

Yep, amen to that, Jim. I bet it came as quite a shock to Dean and John that Sam didn't have a clue what he'd taken. Thankfully they let him tell his side of the story, allowing their anger and disappointment to drain away. And I'm sure it did Dean good to hear that Sam had actually been looking for him to talk things out like he always did, and that he didn't just head for the bar to get drunk and bury the hurt. Hopefully Sam will give himself a break when he regains a little more of his strength. Jules
Author's Response: I wanted to show that sometimes you get yourself into trouble without looking for it. Dean needed to hear his brother trusted him and he was still the one he would come to with all his troubles. Hugs, Vonnie

Hmm - I was wondering whether Sam would remember on his own. That freakishly brilliant mind of his....nothing gets forgotten for very long, does it? So now he remembers, and they will have to deal with the guilt and the aftermath. Nice moment with Dean being the awesome big brother. Have to say, though - that meal sounded delish! If only Pastor Jim was still alive, he could come cook for me! Jules
Author's Response: I'm more than happy to come and cook you a few nice meals. I'm a pretty good cook. I mean I'm not a professional chef, but I love to cook and try new things. You sure deserve it after all this reading and reviewing. Hugs, Vonnie

Brotherly love, who understands it? Who, indeed....WE DO!!!!! *bounces happily* Awwwwwww.....that was a lovely moment - a few lovely moments, actually, between the Winchesters. I loved that John was finally alone with Sam and they got things sorted out - even if it's only for now. Loved the image of John stroking his baby boy's hair as Sam drifted off to sleep. And Sammy's walking!!! Yeah, okay, baby steps, but still...*grins*... Oh, and yep, I agree 100% with John - that would have been the fastest shower on record for Dean - ROFL!! Jules
Author's Response: Well, after all the anxiety you finally got something to awe and laugh at. I'm just happy you hung in there this long. Hugs, Vonnie
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 14/10/09 04:54 AM · On: Chapter 10
Good! Caleb got that b*tch! I hope she gets what's coming to her. Thank heavens that Sam's reaction on waking was just normal for his condition. And I like the fact that the doctor understood Dean's reaction. I'm glad, too, that Pastor Jim nailed John about feeling guilty and not letting Sam see him in the room. Sam is going to need all of his family while he pulls out of this, not just Dean. Hopefully John will realise that. Jules
Author's Response: You are right, family is the only thing that counts here. Sam needs all the help he can get. I'm jumping in joy over all the reviews you are giving me. Hugs, Vonnie
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 14/10/09 04:49 AM · On: Chapter 9
Oh gosh! Is it just confusion because of all the drugs and the treatment, or is it something much worse? My heart was in my mouth when I read that last line. Good for Pastor Jim helping to get Dean to eat, though. But trust the Winchester luck that Sam picked that moment to try to wake up. I'm betting Dean won't be hungry any more after seeing that spark of fear in Sam's eyes. Jules
Author's Response: Drugs and alcohol are so dangerous and there is no way ever to minimize their danger. Mixed together they are even worse and I wish more people would understand that. I have nothing against drinking alcohol if you are old enough an do it in limits. Hugs, Vonnie

Dean brought Sam back, I just know it. Dean's voice, always an anchor for Sam, coupled with Pastor Jim's fervent prayer. I really loved that description of the afternoon sunlight falling across Sam's face. And as someone who has NEVER believed for one second that Sam is evil, that description of him being angelic and other-worldly just fitted him beautifully. I hope the doctor is right and that Sam is finally starting to improve. Jules
Author's Response: Wow, you did take the words right out of my heart. I also never believed Sam was evil. I'm so glad you liked my description.Hugs, Vonnie
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 14/10/09 04:25 AM · On: Chapter 7
Oh, no...... John's right - he'll lose both his sons if Sam dies. I love Pastor Jim - he really wasn't in the show enough. I could just picture him coming to the hospital to be with the Winchesters and to pray over Sam. Let's hope that his prayers are answered. And what a terrible way for Dean to find out - I could hear that stricken scream torn straight from his soul as the doctor announced that Sam was dying. Jules
Author's Response: I love Pastor Jim. I would have loved to see him more in the show. He also gives me the freedom to portrait him the way I wont, because he can be anyway I want him to be. Thanks for another review. Hugs, Vonnie
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 14/10/09 04:20 AM · On: Chapter 6
"I might not always show it but I would go to hell for either one of you." Very true - although I'm betting Sam would never have thought so. That was a nice moment between John and Dean when he finally unbent enough to give his son the comfort he was needing. And it's great that Caleb has been put on that horrible hag's trail - she won't get far with a hunter after her. Am hoping that it really was a frown on Sam's face, and not just Dean hallucinating. Things aren't looking too good for our favourite geek. Jules
Author's Response: I love writing John and I guess he is always a little AU in my stories. I just can't picture him as the hard hearted father the show and so many other's portray him. To me he always has a reason for acting the way he is and he isn't father of the year but he loves his boys. Hugs, Vonnie

Oh, this is not good - now he's on dialysis! Hmm - I suspected that rotten cow would do a bunk as soon as she could. I wondered, too, whether Tom might be involved somehow - he seemed to have wanted to keep Sally from the bar while Joanna was doing her dirty work. Wonder if he turns out to be the dealer. Hopefully John won't be too long away from the hospital - have a feeling Dean's going to need him. Didn't blame Dean one little bit for refusing to leave Sam's side, not even to talk to the police. Jules
Author's Response: Well, it's going to get worse before it gets better. John and Dean sure will need one another. Hugs, Vonnie
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 14/10/09 04:09 AM · On: Chapter 4
I don't envy any doctors who have to give bad news to a Winchester... Poor, poor Sammy - that was hard hearing how many times he crashed, and that he now can't breathe on his own. Damn that b*tch! What the hell was in those drugs?? Hope Sam can hang on until the docs find out how to treat him. I think the next chapter's going to be angsty... Jules
Author's Response: I am always so over the top, it's just my thing, always has been. Thanks for the wonderful review. Hugs, Vonnie
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 13/10/09 10:09 PM · On: Chapter 3
I hope that cow Joanna goes down hard for what she did to Sam. And yes, she was right - that was totally the wrong thing to say to John. I knew it was going to be bad....poor Sammy - his heart stopped and he's not breathing. Can imagine Dean's panic and John's anger. They're right - it's going to be a long night. Jules
Author's Response: Thanks again, by now you know what happened to Joanna. I love you calling her a cow. Hugs, Vonnie
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 13/10/09 10:04 PM · On: Chapter 2
Hmm - not sure what happened with the second chapter - it seems to be repeated. That little cow! She's going to drug Sam just to see if her latest designer hit is safe enough for her to take. What an absolute little b*tch. Thank heavens for Sally - hope she gets a chance to make that phone call in peace and get Dean on the scene. I have a horrible feeling this isn't going to go very well. Jules
Author's Response: I haven't looked at it since it got posted, I guess I have to fix it. I think I wrote this story because of my kids starting to get older and I thought of all the dangers they could get themselves into. Hugs, Vonnie
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 13/10/09 09:55 PM · On: Chapter 1
Love the fact that the title, even from the first chapter, could be taken a few different ways: Sam running into that bar, John letting his temper get the better of him, Dean deciding to leave his father and brother alone, John not telling Sam the real reason he doesn't want him to leave, Sam drinking all that beer, not taking his phone. And he's written himself off in a very short space of time, too - we all know he's such a lightweight. His defences will be down and that's not a good sign. Hope Dean can find Sammy before he gets into real trouble. Jules
Author's Response: Wow, you noticed something that I never even thought about. You are right though, it could be taken all those ways. Thanks for reading this, it was my first venture into this universe. Hugs, Vonnie

Excellent story! I like the way it sounded real like it could happen to anybody who was in the wrong place at the wrong time. I also like the way it lead into the first season. Again I loved the way you did not drag the scenes out it keep me interested. I am looking forward to reading more of your stories.
Author's Response: Thanks again, it means a lot to me, that you are taking the time to review. You are right about the 'it could happen to anyone' thing. I feel, this is a real danger to young people. Hugs, Vonnie
Reviewer: palemoon (Signed) · Date: 22/09/08 04:58 AM · On: Chapter 6
What can I write? Fantastic! I like the way you don't drag out the scene to much just the right amount! It makes the story interesting. Well-done!
Author's Response: Thanks, I'm glad you continue to like it. That makes my day. Hugs, Vonnie
