The best I have ever read boy did I cry

SUPER FANTASTIC SAD and NICE STORY!!!!!!!!!!!!

My sincere congratulations!!!

5 totally deserved stars from here!

5 stars - for a heartfelt Christmas story.

I like it.

Please keep writing.

There’s more than one reason to keep tissues handy on Lit-E.

This was amazing… many thanks!

at least my third time and still get teary...

I'm sure I've got a comment buried WAY down

surprised it's not in my 'Best Ever-!' folder yet...

gave it 5 stars the first time i read it and would again . life is what we make of it the bad and the good . anyone who has lost someone knows you live with the loss as best you can and life goes on .

Wow, really hard to keep my eyes dry enough to read this story, very well done, thank you for sharing.

Over 1400 Comments, for a story that gave me leaky eyes. Five stars.

How is it that a porn story made me fucking cry. Amazing job

Это было очень хорошо. Спасибо.

Blown away. I got pulled in and forgot where I was. Well written with low/high points at correct times. Thanks. BRAVO

Just read it again, so I can’t give it five more stars, simply wonderful story.

Good story. Sad tale with a pick me up happy ending. Great writing

This is quite possibly my favorite literotica story. I have read it many times and been touched each time.

Thank you, I really needed a good cry.

This beautifully written story had me sympathetically tortured. I was feeling his and consequently her horrible pain and emotions. Best story award from me.just wow. I thought I could swallow my tears... I was wrong

Well done . Loved it .

Gets better every time that I read it

It made me cry at the end. And it was an over all nice one. Now it did not belong here. And that's because I come to this site to read about sex and get wond up. Not sit here and cry, and I read it two times and saved it.

Excellent story, my second or third time reading. Brought a tear , almost. The only criticism was the overly long sex scene I think it really took away from a very good story. 5 stars from before and still......

Awesome 5⭐️ story,, I just hope that whoever is cutting up the onions is done

Excellent again

Outstanding. Nothing else you can say

Damn, teared up a lot in this story!! 5/5

Didn't think i would find stories like this with this emotional impact.

Love your work. This is one of my favourites of the many stories.

Loved this story

Sobbed through the whole thing. Very good story.

I've always loved this story, I've read it many times

Awesome story. Hit me right in the feels! 5 Stars

Phew, talk about heavy and intense. Started reading it during the day, teared up and held back so many times. Decided it needs to be read when no one can see me. And now its just an hour of a sinking chest and moist eyes.

A very touching story. The pain of both was palpable. A little too intense, but I guess that made it a better story.

I would have liked to know the reason for Sandy's husband's suicide, but aside from that it's a goid story.

It obvious that the author has never lost a child. He was doing fine until his ending. Every day you thing of your child and what he or she would be doing. The pain dulls but the memory never goes away.

Another interesting fact over 750/0 of marriages where a child is lost end in divorce.

An incredible little story, but fucking ouch! Needs a content warning, and honestly probably on the wrong site... or very least, wrong category

That's incredible. Dickens could have written it, just was unthinkable back in his days.

Really awesome!

Just a really great story. Well written and emotional thank you

❤️

I loved it also: very, very well written andI, too, fought the tears. I was married for almost 20 years, to a woman who didn't love me and my kids think that it was me who didn't love her. They haven't spoken to me in a very long time, nor do they know that they were the reason I stayed. Sometimes, love hurts, then we learn what real love means.

What a sad beautiful story I've not cried from reading a story in ages

You have a great talent for writing don't ever stop I wish I could give you more than five stars

I did not need to be bawling my eyes out with a confused boner at 1 in the morning!!! This was supposed to be quick romantic erotic read!

I really have no idea how to describe its so sad I’ve needed loads of tissue well done on a fantastic sad but good story

Eyes got blurry more than once. I feel the bitter-sweet emotions evoked by this story. One of the traumatic events in my life occurred early in our marriage. I was half way around the world serving in a senseless war with a pregnant wife at home when I got word the baby did not survive the birthing process. I was home in about 36 hours trying to comprehend what happened, trying to take care of my wife, and trying to help our 2 year old daughter understand the situation. The loss was the worst feeling ever. At least until 45 years later when my mate's liver failed and left a huge, gaping hole in my life. Those pits of darkness are not places anyone should have to endure.... But here I am 5 years later, still trying to fathom it all.

Wish I could give this more than 5 stars - what a terrific tearful tale! Thanks for writing!

Damn good story I lost mine 13 years ago and l still lost and feel empty. Great to read a story with a happy ending. Thanks for writing it

Over the years I've read this a couple times. Still gold.

Pretty sure this 3rd time at least, and still great as the 1st time...I'd forgotten how smoking HOT their first X-mas eve was...1,366 comments, 3,400 hearts

You hit this out of the park...going into Best-Ever folder.

Also enjoyed numerous others-All-Inclusive Summer, Poolboy Benes...a lot of H's, & W's-!

I think it was the first time I actually cried reading a story here. no words for how wonderful it all was

WOW, just Wow... tanyabrown

My second time reading this and it loses none of its impact or heartache, a plot designed to pull us in and central characters we completely empathise with, tbh although it’s a bit dark for Hallmark, it has that ring to it. 5⭐️ Many thanks for writing and posting, cheers Ppfzz.

Liked it a lot. I'll be reading more of your stories

Masterful story.

This is a really great story.

Simply wonderful! Thank you.

Great Story!! Loved it!!

Wonderful.

Great writing! A beautiful story with so much emotion.

An absolutely brilliant tale.

To be able to take a reader on such a hard hitting emotional ride in a short 5 page story you have some serious talent. I'm just blown away.

This is the first story I gave a rating to, let alone left a comment. I am still on an emotional roller coaster ride. Absolutely as great story. And contrary to the comment about "angry sex scene", I don't think that person recognizes all the emotions that were coming out between these two people at that time. All the pain and all the joy at the same time washing over them. Just writing that sentence and I am having a hard time seeing my screen thru the tears.

Wow I really didn't expect to read anything this emotional on here. Very well done and the transition into the sex worked well too

Truly a touching story! Having lost 3 kids in my life and now reaching old age with no one to care for me, I understand...

Lost me with the angry sex scene.

Very, very good story, well done, thank you.

This story hurt to read, and that made it an amazing piece of work. Thank you.

You did it... A story; both happy and sad at the same time.. But it does reflect on things in real life. Good and bad; happy and sàd, you did good tx... Be nice if you'd keep it up;the stories of course. 🙄🤔😉😁👍anyway;whatever your up to.. good luck. And thanks. A fan.... 👍🙏🤠🍺✌️

Being honest...awesome!

Hi

Superb - no more words. 7/5

/ the Bun

Yeah, you can really write, dude! Very hard to pull this sort of thing off without descending into the maudlin. I thought the writing in the first three-quarters was a bit stronger than the conclusion (more realistic/believable behavior in certaindetails), but very fine throughout, and I learned a new term: "trouser soldier" [!!!]. Can't wait to use it at the next cocktail party I attend.

I wouldn't say it's a happy story, or even a happy ending. But a story doesn't need those to be amazing.

What points you may lose in writing such a bittersweet tale, you more than make up for in your realistic capture of loss, grief, and the general unfairness of the universe.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

5 Stars... Gotta clean house now, seems there is dust in my eyes ...

Great story for the second time around. 5 stars always even though it tears me up emotionally. Happy this situation has never happened in my family. I would be a basket case as well. Very well written.

5 out of 5. Sad story, but heart warming. Not really what I'd expect on a site like this. A story about two broken people in the process of healing each other and thereby themselves. Loved it. Love how you manage to get your audience all emotional and teary eyed and then with just one joke manage to bring us back down to earth with a smile. Doesn't even matter that they're corny dad jokes for the most part. Dad's gotta dad, right?

Dickens would have been proud of the author, and envious maybe. For he couldn't even think of writing stuff like this, in his age. Many thanks for the wonderful experience of reading this.

Second read, and it’s still 5*. Thank you for writing and thank you for sharing your work.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Damn allergies!

I love it. My favorite author.

Really good story -- bittersweet, but very well written.

That was one of the best sad stories that I have ever read. This hits so close to home that I had to stop for a few days to get emotions under control. I cried and cried and it left me a mess and totally drained. Thank you for writing this tale and then putting it up to be read by all.

Damn good story

Incredibly well written.

No doubt one of the best stories on lit!!

Never thought I'll get this emotional by reading a fic on literotica. 5* is too less for this.

Didn't expect to read a story here that would make me bawl my eyes out. 😭

I was more hooked in the protagonists' emotional rollercoaster than the sexy scenes.

Man I LOVED THIS! ♥️

Many of the stories that I read here have sex scenes that are little more than stroke fantasies. Good for what they are, but not going much further than that. I found that I had a resonance with the Love Scene in this story. Also, the emotional portrait of his loss was deftly done. Kudos.

Great writing. Thank you.

I don't know how many times I have read this story now; it keeps appearing under "Similar Stories"!

But I've yet to read it without being teary at the end.

10 stars for the 8th time. Can read this over and over.

Awesome

I can not tell you how many times I had to stop and clear my eyes so I could finally finish this story, a wonderful story. I hope that this was mostly a work of fiction but if not I hope the joy you find is real and long lasting. This is truly a 5 star piece and a box of tissue. I will follow your writings. All I can say is thank you for a very emotional story. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Fantastic story. A real joy and tear jerkier to read, thank you. 5 Star

A tear-jerker, but a really good story. This is what loving wives stories should be, not cheating sluts, not willing cuckolds. Sad, but well done.

A really beautiful story extremely well written . 5 stars from me

This is an incredible story, it’s like therapy…..

Thank you for sharing,

Wonderful, wonderful storyI it really got to me. Thank you.

Found this by accident... from a "Similar Stories" link. Didn't know what was coming... got to the paragraph about "11 minutes flat to reach the hospital" and lost it... Hope you had the good sense to invest in paper products stock... (heavy on the tissues). I guess we all have hidden-away "might have been" memories. This certainly opened the door a crack to mine... ( light blue?, maybe, but can't say for sure ). Truly a gem.

Wonderful story.

I wish all the stories were as good as this. THANKYOU.

Never commented here. But whoa, this was a story to behold. Seriously loved this, got too emotional at times. Different, Interesting and Creative writing style than all I've read. Just Perfect

Amazing, moving, great characters... I'm not good with adjectives & descriptors but I am filled with emotion - in a very good way. Keep up the excellent story telling!

I think I have some dirt in my eyes.
