I liked this Linda. It was so omteresting to see how Harry would act in such a situation. And crying Harry makes ash so very sad. :,( And the tearing at his soul. That stuck out to me. Wow I could really tell this was a hurricn tribute. Like hurricane Katrina I mean. Ah sad. :*( Sad. He said "'lo" I think too at one point. That was nice use of wording.

I LOVRE YOU LINDA!!!

That was deeply moving. I felt completely sympathized for Harry in this. I think I would've felt and reacted the same way he did if I had no idea where my friends or family were. So far, I think this might be one of your best stories.

It made my eyes water. I volunteered in the gulf coast for eight months and met many of the survivers of katrina. Thank you so much for spreading awareness, so more people can volunteer and help rebuild the gulf coast.

Wonderful job. You have a way with really showing human emotions.

I'm trying to think of something to say, but nothing comes to mind. That was just- wow! You really put into words what I think everyone felt after Katrina. It was a terrible tragedy, but tragedy is what proves courage, generosity, and above all, love. Very nice.

Author's Response: Thank you!

Author's Response: Thanks for the review!!

Thank you. So much. Although I'm almost two years late (I just joined in the last few day), this means a lot from me. I am from New Orleans, and although no damage or harm was brought to me or my family, many, many of my friends were affected greatly (most fully recovered though), and I always feel a little spark of happiness, when someone shows there respect to the city of New Orleans and its loss because of Katrina. And instead of referring to it as a "bad" or "corrupted city", you descriped it as "beautiful and memorable", and I really, truly appreciate that.
This story was also spectacular, almost made me cry, and, there really aren't words to describe how truly amazing this story is. When I read you're writing, I think to myself, 'Wow, I really suck at writing.'
But anyways, I loved this, and thank you.

This was a beautiful tribute. This would even make a good fic to actually write in the sense of a story.

My oh my.you really have it in you.

Just great- I can´t say anything else.

Author's Response: Thank you!!

 Report Review

Oh, this was wonderfully done! I could easily spot the relationship between Hurricane Katrina and The Wizarding War. Harry displayed emotions that I thought were appropriate in that situation.

The story was truly heart-breaking. It reminded me of Hurricane Katrina (as it was supposed to.but it was more than I expected).

Ugg, I'm sorry. I wish I could have left a more substantial review, but I wasn't quite sure how to phrase it.

Just know that I thought this was awesome!

I love the ending quote, its fits so well.

This fic is so sad, just as beautiful as it is sad and its good that it is dedicated to those of the Katrina sufferers.

I love the way you portray Harry's emotions after the war. I am also really touched by your dedication.

Author's Response: Thank you for the wonderful review!

 Report Review

So powerful and moving! I loved it! It is a great thing to dedicate this to such a tragedy. I shuddered when I read : not knowing if they were out there somewhere, desperately clinging to life waiting on him to rescue them… The end was perfect, and the quote so fitting. I hate it when a fic makes me cry! Anyway, thank you for writing this, it is really worth the read :)

Author's Response: Thanks, Lyn. Glad you enjoyed it!

Like many authors I would like to think that people enjoy my work, even if it isnt perfect. When I read this piece, however, I almost felt like giving up. This was incredibly moving and evocative without being over the top. In just a few short paragraphs you paint an indelible picture. A fitting tribute, no matter how small, to the heroes and victims of Katrina.

Author's Response: First I want to say thank you for taking the time to read this story and leaving me a review…it means a lot to mean even though I’ve chosen not to respond to each review individually. I didn’t want to detract from the point of this story by rambling on (which I’m famous for) and instead just want to appeal to you that if there’s anything you can do to help those affected, please contact your local chapter of the American Red Cross. As trivial as it may sound, every one is a hero…it only matters that you care enough to do something.

Your story actually gave me goosebumps. I could see how everything related to Hurricane Katrina and even though I live in Pennsylvania, no where near the destruction that the hurricane caused, I was still affected by it though more mentally than physically. Your story helped to remind me that while I'm sitting here with a roof above my head contributing my 10 dollars to relief efforts, there are still people down there who have not yet seen the light or the hope of the future. I'm sure there are many people who appreciate the fact that you care enough about them to relate your own story on the actual horrors that befell them. I feel that you were one of the best authors to write a piece like this and that you did an extremely wonderful job. I thank you sincerely.
