Another wonderful story, Shay! Thank you for sharing your imagination and love for these characters. You are so talented and I adore reading your stories! I look forward to reading the next one.

The end of this chapter is just so sweet and loving. Edward is okay, Bella is good and Baby Alice is precious. I loved Edward's little inner monologue about having sex with Bella. LOL

I had an epidural and I was in heaven! I also ended up having to have a c-sect but that didn't bother me one bit. My son was so big, as were my boobies, that I had to feed him football style. I never could feed him the "normal" way but it all worked out just fine. He just turned 21 so I guess I didn't do too bad! lol Okay, I guess his father helped, too...

E&B made it through the birth still married and he with his balls intact. All is good with the world! And he didn't hit anyone and all the family was there. Whew!

I can't believe this story is coming to an end but these characters have been through so much. It's time to let them rest and have a wonderful life. We will miss Crazy Alice, too.

I hope your MIL is still doing okay!

I am so saddened by Alice's prognosis. She won't know about the baby.

Rose is such a bitch in this story and Emmett just enables her to continue.

The sessions with Irina are working! It's a process but it is working. And she does call him out which he needs.

You had to work at 3am? Bless your heart!

Can't wait to read more!

Thank goodness Edward found the phone booth and called Aro instead of going for the needle. That had to of been one of the hardest things he done. And bless Aro for being there for Edward without judgement but love and caring.

Poor Edward! He f'd up and he knows it but he had to FINALLY tell Bella what really happened and why he flipped out. It doesn't excuse his going back to drugs but it is understandable. And it's called tough love for a reason so Bella and Tanya have valid reasons why they acted as such. At least he is getting help.

Oh, man. This was a tough chapter. Poor Edward but Dr. Banner is right about him needing some serious help. He has to heal himself and get Bella back. I just wonder where she went and how she got everything out of the apartment so fast! Who helped her? It can't be anyopne from the res because they are all too far away. There is Jasper, Rose, Maggie, Aro...I dunno. Alice? Tanya! If so I hope someone will clue Bella in on what the hell is going on in his head. I can't believe he was so quick to shoot up but glad he went to Dr. Banner for help.

I didn't cry until I read in the a/n about this being one of the hardest to write including several other stories and then the last chapter before the epilogue of Transcendence. THAT is when I cried. Like I've told Shay in the past, I don't know what it is about Transcendence but that story hit me hard and I still, years later, think about that story.

LOL! Crazy Alice nailed down that one! Bella is preggers but they don't know it's a girl, only Alice knows!

I love Dr. Banner! He just gave the s#!t right back to Edward and then diagnosed him with PTSD which really freaked him out.

Jacob and Quil should be locked away for a very long time. Idiots.

OH HOLY HANNAH! Jacob is in the cage! I hope Edward kicks his arse and a few other places! GO EDWARD! And Bella is there...Hhmmm...I gotta question that! Did she let him in the apartment or did they agree to meet at the club? Oh, crud. Next chapter!

It was inevitable that Edward would have to confront his parents one way or another. Did he really think Rose would let it go so easily?! But they did go too far in getting him and Bella separated on the dance floor. That was just mean.

I have my theories on what happened to Angela and Edward. I hope Bella finds out soon so she can help him work through the trauma and end the nightmares and threats from everyone. It will be rough, though.

Oh, Shay...that was so sweet and perfect for them! Yes, it was worth the wait.

When I read the part about Bella and the mystery older girl at the orphanage I wondered if that was Rose. I hope she isn't really that nasty but time will tell. If I were Edward I wouldn't go to the wedding just because she basically forced his hand into accepting the invitation.
