This was an amazing story... I really enjoyed all of it, including Dawn's side trip to Pylea and Spike becoming willing to work for his soul. The story read like life... when the story is over, life continues. There are no guarantees in life, there is just life, but it's more fun with people you love by your side. Thank you for saving Joyce in a plausible way.
Very well done.
BTW, I noticed your medical references. Are you a nurse or doc? I just graduated nursing school. I always try to get the medical stuff right too.
Thanks,

No not a nurse or doctor but my father was a general practicioner and mother an LPN. The closest I ever came was listening to table talk LOL. I have a cast iron stomach. I research (and enjoy it) and love to make things as accurate as possible when dealing with real things. Joyce had a real condition on the show and I wanted to toss in a bit of reality to the story. Maybe someone will read it one day and need some encouragement, you never know.
Congratulations on the graduation! The world needs good caring nurses (and doctors for that matter). Many in my family have gone into healthcare. It's sort of the famiy business LOL. When my field was data processing (old computer mainframe operation)...it was for a .... hospital ... yup, even out of the patient care the family business got me LOL.

I just this story - what a wonderful alternative to the series - just the right story before the Thanksgiving Holiday -
Thank you for reading and commenting. I'm glad you enjoyed the story and that it added to the holiday spirit. I love to make little changes and see how it snowballs.

Very enjoyable. Although it pretty much tended to move away from Joyce as the focus in the last couple of chapters, I think you did a bang-up job on creating her as a heroic character of normal dimensions, a person who brings their life's experiences to bear on guiding her elder daughter wisely. She felt very real, and her impact on both Buffy and Spike was so much within persona that I never thought she was just acting as a deus ex machina for the author. Very pleasing work.
Thank you. SO glad my Joyce worked properly. It was a fine line but I thought it could work coming from Buffy's mom and given her health issues she might well have concluded Spike would be an asset. So happy you enjoyed the story.
