i always wanted to know what happened between those two scenes in the programme. i think you've done a really good job of filling in that gap. i especially loved the last line. thanks for a great read.

You know I've never seen a story that did up the missing scene right after they took Dean off the respirator. Nice.

Ooh, interesting little missing scene here. I never really thought about Dean maybe going back to sleep or something during the tests, butI imagine the doctors would have whisked him away. It's true, he and Sam prolly didn't have much time to talk when he first woke up. I can see Sam worrying the whole time and waiting. What any good little brother would do, eh? Thanks for sharing.
