I knew it was Brian writing it but i almost thought maybe it was Kevin too. I just want to say i loved this story it was fantastic and different....i loved it very much. I cried and i laughed...hands down one of the best stories i have read in a long time :)

Author's Response: A couple people mentioned how it could've been Kevin. Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it and it's great to hear you say that. It means a lot.

*blows nose* okay my tears aren't that bad but still... tears.... what REALLY did it for me was the Jane comment.  That is what really made the tears start coming.... I should've chosen the zombies. 

I liked the story Rose, even though these types aren't my typcial choice I liked how you portrayed the guys and what was going on.  :)



Author's Response: Awww thank you! LOL at "should've chosen the zombies". I'm sure there's a few sad moments in that one too! :P Remember that one is me and Julie lol. Thanks so much Lore, I'm glad you enjoyed it despite how this isn't your typical story. Your reviews have been great :).

FUCK YOU ROSE!!! I hate you, I really do!! This story was just... damn, sooo fucking good!! I now have to read a story in a happier light because you've managed to make me believe this story in such a way, that if I had Nick's number, I'd call him up, just to make sure he still remembers everything just fine! LMAO!! I seriously can't say enough about this story... heartwrenching, emotional, funny, tear-jerker... a great story! Thank you Rose.



Author's Response: You love me lol. Thank you so much! Best compliment EVER! LMFAO I'd love to see Nick's face when he got that call though. Thank you again! You're the best Reb, every single one of your reviews has been fabulous. So thank you again. Glad you enjoyed it! (Despite the fact I had you using a bunch of tissues LOL).

Aw, I'm teary eyed :( Loved the ending. And how sad that he doesn't remember the boys at all or the Grammys. Great job with the story, Rose. I loved it even without the happy ending.

Author's Response: *hands you some tissues* I know. :( It was sad to write, but at the same time I couldn't do it any differently. Glad you enjoyed it Sel, I loved all the feedback you've given me on it. So thank you! :)

Not every story has a happy ending.  I love this line.  It would have been so easy for you to have Nick "recover."  After all, this is fiction.  I'm so glad you didn't.
 The realism and emotions in this story always kept my attention.  At times, it was a difficult read and brought tears to my eyes and at times some joy and laughter. 

Thank you for such a wonderful story.

Author's Response: Awww thank you! And you're right, it would've been, which was exactly why I didn't want that to happen. It wasn't the easiest story to write sometimes but I wanted to go there without cheapening the story by having him recover. Thank you so much! :)

400th review!!! You know how anal and OCD I am; I couldn't stand to see that number at 399. I just had to bump it up to a nice, round number. Did I mention this story rocks? Angst ftw! SPP!

Author's Response: THANK YOU! lmao that was bugging me soooo bad. Just because I'm weird. Did I tell you how much I <3 you? Cause I do! Everyone has angst! Angst! Angst! Angst! SPP! :)

aww what a perfectly beautiful way to end this Rose. You have done such a great job with this story and taking us all on an emotional roller coaster. Congrats!!! I'll miss this story and your updates!



Author's Response: Thank you! I love hearing that from you. :). I've had this ending in my head basically from the moment I wrote the introduction at the beginning lol. I'm gonna miss this story too, especially since I finally had one that had you reading regularly Miss Picky! LOL.

aawh it's the end? well although it was sad, I enjoyed very much. Great story!

Are you going to start a new story btw?

Author's Response: Yeah :(. I knew it was coming soon. Thank you so much! Um...not sure if I'll start a new one, or just continue another fic I started last year called "Walked Out Of My Dreams". :) We'll see, I have a ton of ideas lol.

OMG Rose, tears are rolling down my face and I'm glad I'm home reading this and not in work!

Fantastic story from start to finish.  I knew there would be no happy ending to this, but it doesn't make it any easier.  But even though he doesn't know who he is, or who anyone else is either, he seems happy enough in his own world.  I really felt for Brian when he had to decide to put him in the care home, it was from there that I began to cry.  Don't know what else to say, I loved it and you owe me a box of tissues!



Author's Response: I'm glad too! LOL. And yes, there had to be no happy ending, I knew that from the beginning. But you're right, just like with Brian, knowing that doesn't help any. But the best I could do is let still be Nick, even when he doesn't remember. It seems to be the case with some afflicted with this, and I wanted that for him. Brian had the hardest job of them all. How can you do that to your best friend without breaking your own heart? Thank you so much Steph! LOL I'm gonna go broke buying everyone tissues...

Damn you for making me cry! This was one of the best fanfics I have ever read!

Author's Response: Awwww! I'm flattered I did since it means I affected you so much. Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

OMG, you have me literally sobbing now. As in, crying out loud - not even exaggerating. IWITW did it. You're right (or Brian's right); not every story has a happy ending, and this one was soooo sad, yet perfect! Absolutely, angstfully perfect. You did such an amazing job on this story, Rose, from all the anal research you put in to the impeccable way you translated the facts into feeling. The emotional depth of this story is what made it so good - all the way through, I could feel Nick's fear, anger, frustration, and eventual acceptance, just as I could feel the other guys' sadness as they witnessed the progression of his disease. I'm sad to see the story end, but so happy for you!! Congrats on finishing a masterpiece, ZDR!!!

Author's Response: Wow! You know how I love tears :). Totally flattered I got you like that. *hugs* You know I've had the idea of IWITW for a long time, it was just a must. And yeah, not every story has a happy ending, and this story didn't deserve one, it would've ruined it. Thank you so much Julie! That's totally what I wanted to do, was get the emotions across and as real as possible. I'm sad to see this one end, but I feel accomplished. Thank you SO much for all the help too ZDR! You're been totally ZDRATWATS :)

Awww...what a great story. You really captured Brian and Nick's friendship in this epilogue. I'm sad that this story's over. lol Amazing, amazing job, Rose.

Author's Response: Awwww I love the Nick/Brian bond, and I knew the end I wanted to really showcase that above everything else. If it helps, I'm sad it's over too lol. I'm gonna miss writing it. Thank you so much MA! You've been fantastic with all your feedback :)
