Well SQD, You've outdone yourself again. I love the way you write. You've really got the true personality of Superman in this story. I love it. He's strong. He's protecting his secret. He's honest. He's all that Superman is supposed to be. It's great. I didn't read the warning stuff, I'll just take what comes. I trust you! I hope you've written a lot on this story. I also hope you'll be posting frequently! 
It's always such an embarrassment. Having to do away with someone. It's like announcing to the world that you lack the savvy and the finesse to deal with the problem more creatively. I mean, there have been times, naturally, when I've had to have people eliminated, but it's always saddened me. I've always felt like I've let myself down somehow.

tipi, got it all written, hope to post weekly if not twice weekly, but be advised... I had a LOT of help on this one. My good friend, and inspiration, Jenni Debbage poured just as much, if not more(she had to fix all my mistakes  ), blood sweat, and tears into this baby (as she calls it  )! Can't wait to see if your opinion changes as this goes on.  SQD

Hi all, I'm really so glad to see this go up on the MBs. As SQD has said, there were times we thought we'd never get through this. I also have to say that I'm very nervous about this 'baby'. It's a complete departure from my usual premise, and I would never have tackled it if SQD hadn't asked me to co-write with her. Thanks for giving me the chance to try something different, SQD, and I hope you've enjoyed the experience too.  But mainly, I hope you readers appreciate the story.  Yours Jenni

Well I think it has a wonderful start and I'm very excited about reading this. I am thinking I better get out the tissues for this b/c I already have a heartache for Clark.  Hope you post twice weekly, since I already can't wait for part 2! ~Liz
Lois: Can I go?
Clark: No.
Lois: Oh come on, Clark, why do we go through this? We both know I’m going to go.
Clark: Then why do you ask?
Lois: I’m trying to be nice.

Interesting premise! Here in Brazil there was a soup opera that aproached this subject as well, and although I didn't watch it, I think it is a very interesting subject and even more so with someone like Clark, an unique alien with super powers. Well done!  Ingra
Clark: What is that?
Lois: It's my word.
Clark: There is no such word.
Lois: Sure there is. Someone's a chump, therefore, he's chumpy.
Clark: Try again.
Lois: Are you challenging me?
Clark: You bet your sweet little chumpy I am.

Ditto others. Well, I am not sure what this means having a child as a donor to cure a loved one but if it is what I believe, then I have a little unsure if it's right or not in RL! But I trust on you! Post more soon!

Finally a new story from SQD and Jenny! you are dealing with a very difficult subject, but I do know you are able to do very skilfully: your stories prove it! I can understand the difficulties you have had to tackle: I had a friend who died when she was only fourteen years old, but I was only a kid too, so in spite of the fact that I knew she had leukemia, I was taken by surprise by her death; I think I had an childish confidence that, because she was so young, she could not die. But only one year ago a friend of my brother died because of a rare version of cancer, and I saw the despair of his relatives, but also the great love of his parents, brothers and friends: for example his sister-in-law gave up her job (and I think neglected a little her own kids) to be near him and follow him and his parents during his many trips in Paris for his treatments, and studied that branch of medicine to question the many different opinions of so many doctors. I look forward to see Clark's reaction to his illness in the long term, and his friends's too, and how this mess'll push things with Lois. Simona

Wow, great job, SQD and Jenni. This is an amazing start.  I can't wait to see what happens next. Are they trying more treatments and what's this all about that having a child as a donor to cure a loved one ? Looking forward to part 2 ~Julia

I don't know where that quote came from. Some people who have leukemia may have to have a bone marrow transplant as a part of their treatment. Though Clark's background may pose a challenge. If Clark needs a bone marrow transplant he MAY not be able to look to other humans because he is Kryptonian. Maybe he can just fly out to the Sun to radiate it out of him or something....?

I'm reading this for the umpteenth time and I just love it. It was such a sweet story, the love that is shown throughout. Just in case I didn't tell you before...Great Job!
I'm a firm believer in the fact that God doesn't put any more on us than we can bear. He does however make us come to Jesus every so often.
