Oh and I almost forgot the crossover in Alex's Legacy! Dr. Snowden makes an appearance, along with a couple of other familiar faces

Thank you so much! I've really enjoyed re-living the story through all your wonderful comments. I'm not done with this universe. At some point I want to write both a prequel and a sequel. I have written some short stories that take place after the events in this story. Galentine's Day Special and Accused and of course Ten Lords a-Leaping. Accused is about Patrick, Josh's old trainer. I also wrote some prompt responses back in 2014 that feature some of THH characters. I'll have to find the chapter, but there's one that tells about Ethan's recovery. Thanks for reading and I hope you like my other stories too

They're getting there Thank you so much

Thank you!

It took a while, that's for sure, but there's finally hope on the horizon!

Exactly! On all counts

It was not a good situation for anyone. Eddie could have been in danger from two people parked on a remote rural road in the middle of the night, so reacted strongly. Maybe a bit too strongly, but I can understand why he was so harsh. Like you said, thankfully they were able to realize the connection to Liam and get things sorted out. It's a long road to recover from PTSD, and like you said, some only learn how to adapt. We'll see what the future brings.

I agree that Josh needs therapy just as much as Galen does. Thanks for more great comments

I used to teach therapeutic horseback riding and we had one mare who extremely cranky with everyone (would bite or kick and even broke someone's arm once because she bit them so hard) and was difficult to ride. Very spooky and could be a bit of a pill. Well, I had some autistic adults come for lessons and needed a large horse, so decided to give her a try. OMG This crankasaurus Rex put her head down when the guy was grooming her, ears to the side, all relaxed and loving it. The minute a staff member approached, her head would come up, ears go back... so okay... point taken! We left them to their devices! When a special needs person rode her, she was an absolute angel. Every footstep precise and measured, no spooking. My boss saw me using her for therapeutic riding and was all set to blast me into next week until she saw how incredible the connection was. Everyone here needs healing, and it's a good thing they all have each other. Dr. Snowden is very good at his job

Animals are amazing and Alannah did exactly the right thing. I'll try to remember to point out some crossovers in some of my other stories later, if you'd like

and

He's exactly where he needs to be. The healing power of animals is a powerful thing to see.
