- "I want my mom. I want my mom," he sobbed and chanted. "She's real now and it's not fair. I just…want her." -

I think this is the line that did me in. I'd always wondered how Sam coped after "The Song Remains the Same", because he'd never met Mary before... but the show doesn't tell us that sort of thing. Probably scared of overloading our feels.

Meh. They do that too well as it is.

Loved this.
So much.

"I want my mom. I want my mom," he sobbed and chanted. "She's real now and it's not fair. I just…want her."

This line made me burst into tears. My mom and I are really close, and imagining not being able to remember the mother that died for you, then meeting her, then having her leave again...I'm crying just writing this. Beautiful job!

It made me cry, so much emotion from Sam, who has seen such complexities ,but wants something so heart breakingly simple. Thank-you.

Oh word, man I loved it. Of course Sam would be grieving for the mother that he had just met. And you describe it perfectly, from the desperate tears, to Dean's fear and emotions, to the hug at the end... You did an amazing job!

As Always,

Joee

Awesome story. I kinda missed Sam's pain in the show. Though it was awesome but I wanted to see Sam's grief, his pain. You wrote it very well and I am utterly satisfied now.

Love it,

Ritu.

WOW! I loved this! I loved this episode and wanted to know the boys reactions to seeing their parents, especially SAm's. Thank you!

Absolutely beautiful. This is EXACTLY what I wanted after the episode. You've inspired me to keep going with my own Sam-wants-his-mom fic. There's just so much man-pain to be had! (Silly college keeps me from writing when and where I want to. Phooey.)

This is going to my favorites. Well done; heading to check out your other fics!

"“Your mother must be a saint.”

Sam didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, so just focused on breathing. “Yeah, she is.”"

- Too cute! Too sad, heartbreaking and wonderful at the same time. I loved that Sam finally got to meet his mother.

"While her death had bonded John and Dean, it had isolated Sam. He hadn’t even know her face until he’d found a picture of her at Pastor Jim’s and asked Dean with big blue eyes, “who’s this?”"

- Just heartbreaking - for Sam, and for Dean. I can't imagine what it's like to never know a parent (although I wish I could forget mine a lot of the time, but then, my mother just isn't a good person.) but I loved how you put in this image of innocent child Sam asking who it was in the picture. Truly heartbreaking.

"They'd fall, Winchesters always did, but they always got up, leaning on each other."

- Just a brilliant way to end the story, to real, not overly optimistic but full of the hope that the boys need to keep going.

Great story! Thanks for writing!

Wow. Emotionally powerful, stuff. Beautifully done.

Wa, that was so sad! I'm glad that Sam rebounded but the I want my mom part broke my heart.

Great story!

I don't even know what to say, it was that good! The heartbreak and bond there is so vivid it hurts.

Wow, I have now words. I love how honest this was. It's nice to see a story that simply shows a boy who's only ever wanted his mom. Amazing job with this, you brought a tear to my eye. :')
