Shane got there not long after I’d agreed with her, and booted me out of my own room so she could help Dana get ready. I just sat in the living room for awhile until Bette got there and took me to her house, where Sharon and my mom helped me get ready. They’d separated us on purpose, and it was a good idea. I’d have driven Dana nuts. I wanted every single thing to be perfect.
When I finally got to the University grounds, I was shocked. I’d never seen anything so beautiful in all my life. There was a white trellis and an aisle lined with potted lilies and tulips, and at the end of it, Dana was lounging in a recliner that Shane had to have brought over in her Jeep. I had to laugh when I saw that she was wearing a sundress. We’d joked about it at first, but I was glad she’d gone through with it. She’s always looked so good in green, and she just seemed to radiate light. Shane was sitting on the arm of the chair with her hand entwined with Dana’s, and she must have been saying something funny, because Dana kept laughing. It was the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.
They hadn’t noticed me yet, but everyone else was starting to take their seats. Shane and Dana were completely oblivious to it, and I was glad. Dana would have definitely freaked out if she’d seen the sheer number of people there. I was still trying to get things right in my head when Helena came over and took my arm, leading me over to the group. One by one they hugged me, and my mom and Sharon both kissed my cheek. Eventually, when she realized I was just standing there staring at Dana, Bette swatted me on the ass and laughed when I glared at her. "We’re waiting," was all she said.
So, I started walking. Dana and I had agreed almost immediately that we weren’t going to have the stupid wedding march playing, and I was really glad it wasn’t. I was about halfway to her when she finally looked away from Shane and caught sight of me. I worried a little when she seemed to stop breathing, but when Shane gently smacked her back I knew it wasn’t for a medical reason. The love in her eyes lit up her entire face, and as I kept walking on shaky legs, she was the only thing I saw.

Wow I had to choke back tears and swallow a lump in ym throat more than a few times. I never cry at fanfics but this one almost got me. Perfect MT just fucking perfect. xx Oh and get better soon hun :)
perfect, very sad.. but perfect. Thank you.
*blows nose and puts tissue away* I was dreading the end of this story. This story was amazingly beautiful but SO sad. I’m looking forward to an update of your ‘happy’ story “You” (especially to that certain something coming :P).
Wow, what a beautifully written piece, expertly catching the emotions inlcuding sadness, love and, yes, happiness of these two wonderful people. You are definitely a wonderful writer and I hope you are feeling much better and can continue with YOU very soon. Thank you
okay – i can barely see what i writing due to the tears that are in my eyes. that was really beautiful. definitely your best writing so far. please give us something happy now. that was devestating. great job.
This story should come with a warning label like ‘May Cause Dehydration’ – it was exquisitely written. I miss Dana.
amazing as per usual. feel better so you can get back to writing a happier version of this in “You”.
Perfect. The way it should have been to begin with.
Very sad, but better than the show by a lot, more settled and peaceful and loving
you had me in tears these two last chapters :'( great story!
*gul* This was breathtakingly beautiful. I choked up more then once. You made me cry. *sigh* It was very moving, so much better and so much more human then the stuff we got to see on tv. I liked it. But I’m glad to see the newest part of “you” soon.
I know you had to do it and you did it perfectly. You are such a gifted writer even when I am not thrilled with the subject. You helped fill the void IC left.
Simply beautiful!WOW…I have a lump in my throat and holding back tears!!!You are truly gifted!!!
That was just beautiful. I was crying at the end if only the show could have done such a great job.
Best fanfic ever. What more can I say. You are incredibly talented
thank you for this story. i can’t think of a more fitting ending to dana’s cancer story. you’re truly gifted and i sincerely hope you’ll continue to write danish fanfics.
I so inspired by the beauty in how you wrote this. It gripped my heart and stayed with me. I read it yesterday, cried my tears but still it’s with me. Thank you for sharing your talent. I am so touched.
Ok I hardly even comment fanfics but how could I not on this one? I am literally in tears. I never cry from stories or movies. If you think of the saddest movie ever, I guarantee I could watch it and not one tear would form. Yet, these last two chapters have kept me crying. This fic was absolutely amazing. You’re amazing! Blew IC out of the water! They should take lessons from you. Can’t wait for an update on “You”.
Picturing the scene: You’re reading a book, or watching a movie, and you just have to call it off because you’re so into it that you find it almost painful to keep on doing it. So you decide to just quit. You press the pause bottom. You put the book in the freezer. Well, this has happened to me twice: the first one was a movie by Isabel Coixet; the second one ,Valediction. A couple of months ago I quit reading it at some point of the second chapter. I knew it was just fiction, but it felt so real… I just couldn’t make it. (I know, I know… Too corny!) But yesterday I did. I read all of it, and well, you got me speechless (you know… my English skills are so limited!! :p) Today I’ve bound it!! I handmade a little book (I love arts & crafts!). But unlike Alice with Dana’s letters, I think I won’t be able to read it again… I promise I won’t put it in the freezer, though!
