sed but good

I CRIED

This is written so well and so sad. Reading about Zuko-a very loved character that most of us picture as the teenager from Team Avatar-fades and loses his memories is just heartbreaking.
Especially knowing that other people deal with the same thing in real life.

Wow, thIs is incredible. You address the experience of Izumi so well and we follow her journey so closely that you really feel it. Thanks for writing !

heart wrenching.

A melancholic narration - and how could it be different, given the subject. It makes me remember, since my late father suffered from Alzheimer himself. Thank you for this story. In case you've experienced it with one of your loved ones yourself, I share your grief. I'd like to add "Once a Man, Twice a Child". Please let me know if that would be ok with you.

That was amazingly written...Dementia is a terrible thing, but you are so right.
The disease doesn't define the person. It's his actions that define him.
This is really beautifully written and so heart-wrenching. I was in tears by the end.
Seriously, well done.

There isn't really much to say about this story, I'm going to favorite it and tell everyone I know to read it

It's okay, I didn't need my heart anyway. This is such a beautiful story, even if it did make me cry.

Anyway, this seriously almost made me cry. This review is going to get a little personal so fair warning and I hope you don't mind, haha. The story is really well-written, and all I could think about while reading this was my grandmother, who also has Alzheimer's and it's been really hard, on my mom especially. As a result, this hit really close to home so i might be biased, but I still think this is really good regardless. I might be looking too much into it, but I like how there were subtle hints about how Zuko was scared that he'd lose everything he worked so hard for in a very short amount of time. It may not have even been there and I put it there myself since my grandmother's more or less going through the same thing, but I picked up on it and it was realistic and I liked it. Speaking of realistic, the interactions between Zuko and Izumi were excellent as well.

A few things, though. One is just a minor capitalization correction. When referring to parents specifically, like Zuko's line, "I want mother," the word "mother" should be capitalized since it's being used like a proper noun-like a nickname. You don't capitalize it if it was phrased like, "I want my mother." With "my mother", the word "mother" is being used as a common noun so it shouldn't be capitalized. It's a common mistake (understandably; it's confusing), and didn't detract much from the story itself. I'm incredibly picky about capitalization, so most people probably wouldn't have even noticed.

I'd have also have liked to see Toph and Katara at least referenced once or twice. I understand why they might have been left out, but it feels a little strange without them even being mentioned, all things considered. The last thing, the ending felt a little abrupt. I don't really know how to fix it since I'm also terrible at endings, but it didn't feel like the end of the story, and it could have kept going on. All that said, this was great.
