Excellent. Sad and heart warming at the same time.

Cool - I'm glad you thought so. Thanks for letting me know.

Loved this. I remember the movie and how it was supposed to be a comedy and I just sat there and cried because I couldn't get past the thought that this was pure torture. I thought the idea of never being able to get past a certain point in your life as my own version of hell. Maybe because I have such bad memory problems myself. Basically what I'm saying is that you handled this very very well. I enjoyed it a lot, even as I sat here trying not to cry. Good job!

I cried at the film too, but only at the happy ending. *is a sad excuse for a human* Anyway, I'm glad you liked the story, and thanks very much for your kind comment.

Oh that was lovely and sad and hopeful all at the same time.

Loved it.

Thanks very much indeed.

This was fantastic. I always thought 50 First Dates sounded like a terrible movie (and thus can make no actual comparisons between that production and this one) but I'm going to go out on a limb and say that your version is way better, more heartbreaking and more loving and so much more real. Just, that Rodney has always felt this way, always trusted John, always wanted him, and that John can figure that out. It's lovely and heartbreaking, and this line is seriously perfect: And Rodney doesn’t have to worry anymore, because he can see who he is now reflected in John’s eyes.

It IS a terrible movie in a really good way! *g* Thank you so much for your lovely comments, I really appreciate it.

That was sweat, frustrating and beautiful all in one. I loved the way you wrote this, so no complaint from me.

I love how even with no memory, both Rodney and John get their happy ending.

Cool! I've never written a story in that format before, so I had no idea if anyone would even understand it! I'm so very glad you did, and thanks for letting me know.
