Somehow, Alice ended up drifting off, only to be woken by Carmen splashing her again and asking her to look at the tattoos she and Shane had gotten earlier. The party sort of went downhill from there, though. Lara came outside with a cake to celebrate Dana’s first chemo, which most of them found a little weird, and it was as if Dana’s mood took a nosedive at her presence alone. She ended up snapping at Lara in front of everyone, almost making the chef cry. Realizing that she was in no shape to sit outside and visit, she asked Bette if it would be okay for her to go lay down for awhile. Bette, of course, said that it was, and they all waited in uncomfortable silence until Dana had gone inside.
Not long after, Lara came back out onto the patio, looking like she’d been crying. Alice and Bette exchanged a look, and Bette headed into the house while Alice went to sit next to Lara, who started talking before she could even sit down. She went on for a few minutes about how hard it was getting to put up with Dana’s constant anger, and how she was sure she couldn’t be doing her any good when everything she said or did was wrong.
“Lara…Dana needs you,” Alice said, much as she had before. But it was different now, and they both knew it. Which was why Lara just looked across the pool, not seeming able to meet Alice’s eyes.
“She needs you, Alice. You’re strong. I just – I feel lost. I feel totally lost.” And she did. No matter how hard she tried to keep it together, Lara was having a hard time holding onto her sanity since the treatments had started. She’d hoped that Dana would eventually warm up to her, and after what had happened before the surgery she’d been sure it would happen. Things seemed to be heading in the opposite direction now, though, and she couldn’t handle it.
Alice just rubbed her back, trying to think of something to say. She could see the toll this was taking on Lara, and it really made her sad to see it. Lara was a beautiful person, she really was, and she didn’t deserve to see Dana like this or to be treated like shit. It wasn’t entirely Dana’s fault, but it wasn’t Lara’s either…and the whole situation was just incredibly unfair. In that instant, she made the conscious decision to help Lara as much as she possibly could. “Dana’s lost, too,” she said finally. “And I need to find her.” Because if she didn’t, and Dana wouldn’t let Lara, who else was going to?

Great job, the connection is real! Gives me hope for happy endings.
WOW muted im so very proud of you at this moment! I know that had to be tough to write,but you did it and it was the best update! Im sorry i havent been around ,wishing i was there for you to write this chapter.HUGS and just remember its almost 6 months!! Love ya!!! PPS
Wow Temp this was really really good and im not just saying that i truly mean it.I know what its like to write your own experiences in your story its kinda like an outlet and I know it mustve really been hard for you to write this, especially since youve lived through it. I love the way you ended this chapter. We all have that friend like shane that seems to always be right when you dont want them to be LOL
Wow! This is beautifully written. I loved it. Alice verbiage always make me smile. More Please.
Phenomenal update. It broke my heart, and gave me hope all at the same time. You did a wonderful job, and I really enjoyed reading it. I can only imagine how difficult this was to write, with having your own experiences with cancer. For that I applaude you. Thank you very much for sharing. Keep up the great writing. I can’t wait to see what’s going to happen. Sorry, but I don’t have any good ideas about the Foamcore Dana. Although, I always did have this picture of Alice playing “dress up” with Foamcore Dana. You know…Dana’s pants and shirt? That way it not only looked like Dana, but smelled like her too. Weird right? Wait a sec…that didn’t actually happen right? I seem to have a whole bunch of season 3 memory lapses. Oh well. :) Loved it.
This update brought tears to my eyes. I absolutely loved it! It’s all in the small gestures that emphasis the strong bong between these women (and ofcourse especially Dana and Alice). I was glad to see that Alice replaced Bette. And Alice comforting Dana at any time…they’re just meant to be. *sigh* And I also loved the fact that they went looking for Dana after Carmen’s remark. The original storyline will only fade more to the background from now on. And don’t be scared, you will do just fine on your own. You already did a superb job with this one!
I am totally loving this story!!!
So sweet!! i hope you have a happy ending tho..my hopes are so high lol:)

Can’t wait to see what happens next. gotta love the love…:)
