Wow. Just... Wow. This was brilliant. I actually teared up and did the girly "awwwww" at Dr. Bates's pep talk speech with Sam. This is seriously awesome. (Isn't it fun to get reviews on something you wrote ages ago?)

I'm positively terrified of Dr. Sam and for Dr. Sam!!!

Remember thinking this was a good twist when I first read it and the E-coli path was a good sidetrack. Like how you have given Ellen maternal scope here - Sam even trusts her to patch up Dean, and her support of Dean during the sewing up scene - how she didn't push or prod him into 'sharing', was well written.

Some great lines here - loved Sam's sarcastic Dean description as a cardboard cut out - right on the money! Dean's ability to camouflage his pain is scary and quite believable - nice touch how you have him rationalising and even down playing his suffering - very Dean.

Firstly - your story rocks - the way you set up the tension between the brothers and the mystery over what is wrong with Dean is skillfully done!!!! Secondly I have to apologize as this story has been sitting in my favorites forever (back when I stopped being a lurker and stepped into the light-lol!) but I have not reviewed it. It is amazing to read this again as it is actually better than I remembered it. Love Mother Hen Ellen!

You had me so stressed out, I was pacing around our office between paragraphs in order to calm down! This was a GREAT story!

Holy Schnikes that was amazing!! Very well done. I will seek out your stories and be sure to add you as a fav author. I'm not a fan of hurt Dean ( I prefer my Winchesters uninjured and not bleeding) but you wrote it very well and I was anxious to see the end. You are awesome!

I'm intrigued.

Gee Hunny that was on teriffic read and poor Dean you so put him through it. I could feel his horror and embarassment at the enema and I'm not surprised but i would have helped rub his back so just call me if you ever need help. And then the Dr Bates whisky councelling services was sweet and sad and soulfull. A great read EFW, different and compelling. Thanks very much for sharing bev xx

Dear EFW. Well this is one hell of a rollercoaster ride of a story and I have to say I am loving your depiction of all the characters in this medical melodrama. Your connectivity between Sam and Dean is poignant, believable and at times heartbreaking. I like your Ellen she is strong without sacrificing her humanity and The doctor and his wife are nicely written and credible as old retired medics. And Ash, well I always loved Ash so he's always a welcome addition. The pain is exquisite, toe curling stuff and I can imagine maybe one or two readers had to pop outside like Sam at the end of the op to barff up their lunch. Well done for someone without a long medical background its very well done. Off to finish the last chapters now. Thanks for a great read. Bev xx

Where to start for the final comments... This was a beautiful piece of writing and I enjoyed it as much today as I did the very first day I read it a year ago. I think you have a rare talent for documenting what is inside the boys heads, their emotions, their feelings and their insecurities are all laid bare by your style and I'm actually quite sad to see you never posted anything else here...cos I would be looking out for your other work right now. This was great work and I'm sure it's not the last time I'll be reading it. Thanks for sharing...XX Louy

Hah, no I don't think Dean would have minded either. Another incredibly intense chapter and another one that made me squirm, but in a good way...lol So many best bits it's hard to quote them but I particulaly liked Bates' story...and Ash's part in the story..trust Ash to have a stash of 'wakky bakky' and to give it up for Dean...I did like him... ...and so on to the big finish...
Reviewer: bulletbabe (Signed) · Date: 15/04/08 02:38 PM · On: Chapter 9
God, inner thigh...gulp And the whole end of this chapter had me reaching for the tissues. Sam's torment has been so perfectly described, he's suffering easily as much as Dean is right now and my heart goes out to both of them...great writing.
Reviewer: bulletbabe (Signed) · Date: 15/04/08 02:25 PM · On: Chapter 8
Damn this was one detailed chapter and you must have either done a shed load of research, been in a medical job for quite a while or been through this yourself... ...but whichever it is, you did a bang up job. I was nurse for years (not surgical I must admit) but you even have me squirming in my seat...and holding my stomach protectively...credit to your writing!

'All he saw was failure. An inability to maintain what was expected of him. What he expected of himself. His father’s death meant more to him than simply missing the man, it was the end of a purpose. His purpose'...and no wonder Sam was in tears...just a beautiful description of what goes on in Dean'd head. And let's get it on...Dr Sam, your patient is ready...lol
Reviewer: bulletbabe (Signed) · Date: 15/04/08 02:07 PM · On: Chapter 6
'Cause nothing turns women on more than men in pain'....damn, they've figured it out...the game's up ladies...lol Another great chapter and along with Sam's guilt at not having noticed his brother's pain earlier, now he has to cut into him to save his life... Bates? So no shower then...great line!!!
Reviewer: bulletbabe (Signed) · Date: 15/04/08 01:58 PM · On: Chapter 5
“Why do something the easy way when you can do it the hard way.” What a great line to sum up the whole Winchester ethos... ...and you have NO idea how terrifying it is to think of a 95 year old half blind doctor with a scalpel. Heartbreaking when Dean looked at Sam and saw John instead...that bit got to me real bad...
Reviewer: bulletbabe (Signed) · Date: 15/04/08 01:44 PM · On: Chapter 4
It sure does... You've done a fantastic job of writting Sam's POV in this chapter, the whole...Why did Dean have to be unconscious for him to feel connected? To feel needed? And poor Dean, it's only gonna get a whole lot worse and there can't be many things worse than being that exposed and vulnerable for him...
Reviewer: bulletbabe (Signed) · Date: 15/04/08 01:30 PM · On: Chapter 3
Love the way you've written Dean almost scared of Ellen but not quite...still able to hold his own but has to bow to her demands and I also like the way she's the mom in this story... Great angsty snark from the boys again and it's all just starting for Dean isn't it...lol Moving on...
Reviewer: bulletbabe (Signed) · Date: 15/04/08 01:23 PM · On: Chapter 2
Great snarky fighting between the boys and I loved this line... “I am a fierce hunter. I kill bad things. I take no prisoners. I down a few beers at the end of the day and I go to sleep. I get up and do it again. I feel nothing. I love nothing, because if I did, and I lost it, I couldn’t live with myself.” ...Sam really has summed up his brother hasn't he?? lol And the whole segment on the roof is great, fantastic descriptions and I remember racing to the next chapter the first time I read it...awesome work...moving on...
