Valediction (Two/Three)
"Yeah, please. What are you guys doing?" she asked, and I noticed her voice sounded a little groggy. She held my hand.
"We’re just talking. I’ll get you some water, okay? Goodnight, baby," I said, taking her glass and heading into the kitchen. Shane came in and took it to her, and I heard them saying goodnight. She’d barely made it back to the living room before we heard Dana groan. By the time we got to the bathroom, she was already hunched over the toilet.
She hadn’t made it, although I have to give her a lot of credit for trying. I caught Shane’s eyes and smiled, showing her that I didn’t give a shit. I really didn’t, and all I could think to do was huddle down next to Dana and put my arm around her as she kept spewing up thick black bile. "Shit, don’t clean up," she muttered during a break in her heaving. "I’ll get it, just -"
"Hush, Dana. Are you done?" I asked softly. No. She kept vomiting. I just held her while Shane got the cleaning supplies ready. When Dana finally seemed to be done, I half-carried her back to the bed, where she lay in a sweaty heap with my arms around her as Shane scrubbed the carpet and mopped the floor. The smell of Lysol must have gotten to Dana, because as soon as it hit her she was up again, staggering past Shane, who barely got out of the way before Dana was heaving into the toilet she’d just cleaned. We both tried to comfort her as it went on, and I was starting to get a little worried. The nausea had never been like this. It was coming out like a geyser.
"Where the fuck is it coming from? There can’t be anything left!" Dana wailed after about fifteen minutes. Shane tried to calm her down, while I got my phone out of my pocket.
"I’m calling the doctor," I told her, positive that this was too much. She just shook her head at me.
"This is how it is! They can’t do anything," she protested, but I knew she was lying. As weak as she was, she was trying to comfort us. I just sighed and motioned to Shane to help me carry her back to bed.

I wanted to stay in my happy place and I was really reluctant to read this story. The fact that it was written by you, persuaded me and I’m glad I did. Even though I am crying my eyes out right now, I’m happy to know thatDana spends her last days with the love of her life and is surrounded by her friends. The story captivated me so much that, after reading it, I realized my music player had been playing Akon with I wanna f*ck you on repeat (don’t ask me why). So I’ve been listening to the most unromatic song while reading your immensly moving story! Weird huh?! Anyways, looking forward to the wedding chapter (and looking less forward to the part where we have to say goodbye to Dana).
I cant express how amazing I thought that was, you’ve got me crying my eyes out. Your writing just blows me away. If I’m crying now I’m gonna be so much worse next chapter but I know its gonna be incredible. You are so unbelievably talented x
hey, I just caught up with this. What can I say? This is one strong piece. I’m kinda speechless. Like some other readers here I was getting choked up while reading some parts. The proposal for example and so many more. I’m glad you decided this to be 3 parts, cause seriously, I couldn’t take more of it, since I know what’s going to happen. AND I’m glad you decided to not put this storyline into your other story. Cause that’s my happy one. And you better be updating that fast, lol.;)Great work.
Fantastic piece of work – so sad, yet so happy, looking forward to more very soon.
i don’t think i’ve commented on any story in months but after reading that chapter i couldn’t NOT comment! you literally had me choking on that lump you get at the back of your throat when you’re fighting off tears. i did managed to hold off the tears until the part about alice and the group going to pick fresh flowers. that’s when i completely lost it! you’ve written your version of dana’s cancer story so beautifully. this story it really gives “bittersweet” a whole new meaning. thank you for giving us danish lovers something so precious. i can’t wait to read the final chapter
Wow!I can’t stop crying I can’t wait till they get married
OMG I’ve not cried so much in a long long time…It’s a sad story butits done in such a great way…..I need to get the hankies out for the next chapter I think! PPS
WOW…Okay I’m totally tearing up at work, but at least I am watching The View in the background which is making me laugh…WOW WOW WOW…this is so beautiful! (BTW I do love my job, just a rough time in the industry). Your writing is amazing! Just simply amazing! I have a feeling when the final chapter comes I will need at least a bottle of wine and a box of tissues.
Beautifully sad. Simple as. You have a gift for writing that stirs up emotions I didn’t think were possbile while reading a fictional story. :)
Beautiful as always.
I totally can’t comment on how amazing that was so I’m not gonna even try.xx
