By all accounts a story about Draco dying as a vegetable with Hermione monologuing should be boring and depressing but this story is as far from that as can be. This story wasn't sweet or romantic but real and gritty and that alone makes it beautiful. It's a story that makes you wonder if you are really enjoying all the simple pleasures in life or just letting it pass by. Great story thanks.

*wibbles* That was so good and so sad. I really don't have the words to tell you how awesomely that tugged at my heart.

I cried, darling. This story made me feel so lonely and so hopeful at the same time but they clashed in an odd way so I ended up confused on the inside. Not that your writing is confusing at all-it's very clear, actually. It's just that this is more than just a story, so much more, and it takes a great author to write something like this.

I don't even know what to say... This was fantastic. It made me want to cry, and yet I couldn't. Your descriptions of everything were just so real, and all the little details, like the visions of bees and Indian music and spilled milk just added to the essence of the story... If you hadn't typed all of this up I would have thought that you were in a hospital paralyzed yourself. If really liked that you clearly put a lot of effort into this, to make everything believable and real and inspiring. The plotline was original, interesting, and beautiful in a sad way, becasue while most Harry Potter angsty fanfictions are filled with magic and character death from murder and tragic love, this was real. This could happen to people, and as you pointed out, no one would ever see it coming. However, I was a bit confused about a few things in the story... how Draco was paralyzed, was there magic in the story, that kind of thing. And while I'm pretty sure that the end of the story only took place in Draco's mind, maybe you could have made it a little bit clearer (unless you wanted to leave the reader questioning, in which case, brilliant job.)Either way, I loved this. Exquisitely written. Beautiful job.

The section beginning "He doesn't know where they are..." - Is that real? Does it actually happen, or does he dream it?

Loved it, by the way. The images he sees especially, all the little details of every day life, it's brilliant.

This was incredible. I felt like I could feel everything Draco was feeling... it was so intense! Your descriptions are truly amazing. I couldn't imagine being trapped in my own body like that! This is probably my favorite story. Great job!

Five months after receiving the notice for this story, I read it and am impressed.

Draco's POV is perfect; I admire your ability to capture both of the characters. It's impressive how much was shown through one room, from one point of view in one bed. I especially like the passage of time...it seems realistic, and very effective, in that I've no idea how long has passed in this story. It could have been a week, or three years, and it doesn't really matter because the events happened.

I approve, wholeheartedly, of this story being written. I wish I'd read it months ago.
