Aye, I've had a LOT of personal experience with it. I hoped that I didn't portray the disease disrespectfully, through.

Nice one ,don't be sad strong up and walk on :twilightsmile:

Nice one, don't be sad strong up and walk on (twilight voice):twilightsmile:

Alcohol is never the answer to your problems. Always drink responsibly. :ajsleepy:

:ajsleepy: applejack sad. :flutterrage: why u make such great sad stories!? :fluttercry::fluttercry::fluttercry::fluttercry::fluttercry: :heart:loved it.

More is to come, and soon, I assure. Thanks to all for the (Seemingly positive?) responses.

Sorry if I'm not "in" on what happened.
But what happened to Sorrow of Love?

That one was my favorite. :fluttercry:

It'll be back up after some revision and rewriting. I wanted to take my time with it rather than maintain the rushed pace I had. But fear not, it will eventually resurface. Can't exactly give you a date, but when I finally do post it back up, it will be more than one chapter.

These feels. I have never witnessed feels such as this. :applecry:

The feels, they are OVER 9000! :raritycry:

I have to take my time reading these because my feels can only take 1 at a time. AJ being my fav it is such a good kick in the feels. Nice job

She has her mother’s eyes.

Harry Potter reference right in the feels. :fluttershbad:

You beautiful man, that was such a good story. Many manly tears have been shed from this story, I salute you.

Thanks to everyone. They'll be more stories to come, many of which sad. I'm thinking of doing a sequel with letters to Applebloom.

Thank you very much for this touching story. I know that I haven't commented on any of the other chapters, but that was only because this was impossible for me to stop reading long enough to do so. I wanted to say a few things that I thought throughout reading this.
1. :flutterrage: DAMN YOU FOR WRITING THIS STORY! It was brilliantly done, making it even harder to read.
2. Ever since my father died four years ago, there have been very few occasions, less than can be counted on one hand, that I have cried. Ever since his death, I have been able to feel everything, but not cry. I had pretty much shut down that emotion to stop the pain.
3. I didn't know that it could rain indoors, and right now, it's a maelstrom.:raritycry:
4. One reason that I truly enjoyed this was because this closely resembles my family. My parents would bend over backwards to help those who needed it. They were always cheerful and let us (me and my younger brother of five years) make our own decisions, in most instances at least.
5. Another reason that this story impacted me so much is because my father was an alcoholic. He didn't really so this, but he drank every night and, thankfully, never went into a drunken rage. From what my mother has told me, she even got to the point where she was ready to file for divorce.

I greatly appreciate the obvious effort that you put into this story, and I look forward to reading more of your works.

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I hope the story did not upset you, though.

2876338 Not in the slightest. It was a great story and very touching. I thank you for daring to write something as controversial alcoholism and doing so as well as you did.

This was a below-the-belt shot right to my feels.:raritycry:

I'm an alcoholic. 125 days sober. And I'm balling like a baby. This could have so easily been me. This is millions of people's reality. It hurts so good. Idk if I should hate you for making me cry or admire and adore how much pain you put in so little paper.
