She Was Fading - Comments

Theres not many words to describe this, but Cute stands out. :) I love the concept of this, and I want to know more about Delilah, I find myself wondering after "Turquoise" if she'll begin to slowly reveal who she really is. Or if she'll remain a mystery till the story is done.

I positively love this story. Great job! :)

I'm so confused, I thought this was finished. When I got an email I was like "whaa no way!"
Sorry to say but I don't think you should re-do it.
The story was perfect the way you followed through with and ended it.
Just my opinion.

Are you re-doing it?

Oh my God I just read the whole thing in one sitting and I absolutely LOVED it. I loved how the characters spoke their personalities so clearly with a couple chapters or words. I loved how you described the important things and the rest sort of melted in place without needing huge detail. And I loved how you didn't tell everything and we still don't know that much but we know enough to love the story.

And I sure did :)

Also, Caroline's wish made me cry. Even more so than when she died. Bittersweet moments

Well, damn. Here I thought you weren't updating and my subscription just went inactive after chapter 18 :\ Anyway, that was amazing

This story is amazing. I love the short, sharp chapters that are so to the point that its almost confronting. I love that its so real and so much emotion goes into your words. I read all 58 chapters in a half an hour because I couldn't stop and by the end of it I had tears streaming down my face. You have an amazing talent and I really think you should take this story and approach a publisher. It could help alot of families and friends of people with incurable diseases like it helped me. Never stop writing.

Wow. I loved this so much! I cried a couple of chapters before Caroline died and I cried, of course, when she died, even though I knew it was going to happen. I knew Stella and Christian were going to have a baby when I was reading the second last chapter, I just had a feeling. I also had a feeling they would name her after Caroline. Fantastic. You rock.

because i loved it :)

Aww! It's over!
That story really was beautiful, you're talented.

Just wondering... Is the baby's name Delilah or Caroline?

I simply agree with everything that everyone said. Ecxept that it was so much more beautiful that she died... it wouldn't have been the same if she was "miraculously saved". Thanks for the realist veiw! Its so rare in stories nowadays..

One thing I need cleared up;; is the baby named Dalilah or Caroline?

awe! I love love loved the ending!

that was probably one of the best stories I've ever read on here :)
the ending was absolutely perfect

That was honestly the cutest, sweetest thing I've ever read. God, I love how you wrote this so much, and I know I've already told you that, but it deserves reinforcing. I love it. Every part of it. The tie, the last line, perfect. This story was just gorgeous.

Nice, u made me cry. My best friend was just diagnosed with cancer an she's just like delilah. She's quiet and doesn't talk too much I'm the only one other than her family that knows. :( I love your story tho :)

This is the most beautiful thing I've read in a while. I loved everything about it. The ending was perfect. The whole story was perfect. Lovely lovely lovely.

Following along with the general consensus of those who commented before me, I am in awe at how well this was done. Your writing is very special, and I personally have not come across many stories who work with chapters that are small in (word) quantity, and I have read even less. What strikes me is that though you "lack" (although lack doesn't quite feel right applied to this) the normal multi-paragraph chapters, you seem to make up for it in quality.

The writing style, which is minimalist in presentation, not exceeding detail nor wasting time on pointless description or events, really gets us as readers to focus on what's important, the characters and what little does get said. Every little thing you do write matters that much more, and the emotion carried through so well. You have written something I would call remarkable.
