Life took me away from these final chapters. I am so glad I found my way back here via your "complete" post.

You must know how much this chapter made me smile, even with misty eyes. I am particularly moved by the inclusion of lines from The Charge. :)

Also, bless you for including the idea that there was absolutely nothing Chase could have done to change her drinking. I thank you, and a million other daughters of alcoholic parents thank you.
