I have read several of your stories. But this is my favorite. It has so much heart. Taking a 13 boy with no future, some good women gives him a home, food, and safety. Then he gives her everything he can, with love in his heart, then gets a mom and grandparents, finally he turns into a women then gits married and his grandparent a little girl with a "special" pandit. A perfect ending

 A beautiful story,beautifully told and which moved me to tears,
especially the part about the 14 yo.who took his own life.As a retired
paramedic I unfortunately saw three youhg men in similar situations
who took their own lives just because nobody "understood".I hate narrow minded people!!Thank you so much once again.ALISON

I just re-read this story again.  Again, I was moved greatly by this story.  I have found it to be one of my favorites.  While re-reading this story I noticed something that I wish the author would correct.  Namely, sentences were started in the "first" person and switched to the "third" person and made it a little difficult to follow the sentence smoothly.  The author would begin with I and change to him/her.  Please correct this for continuity sake.  Otherwise, there is nothing that I would change, a lovely story indeed and I especially like the ending with the "cross" a very nice touch.

Just a lovely story....moved me to tears.  Thank you for writing it.  Continue on with such pure and lovely stories they will bless all who read them.  I truly detest those stories people write of all the gross sex, but I truly love the stories where things are kept clean and on a higher moral plain.  Truly this is such a pure, clean and enjoyable story.  Again, Thank You!

Janet, one of your best stories. Raymond becomes Rachel and blossoms into a caring woman. In her journey, her grandparents find the daughter the lost to war. Then Naomi dies, and Grandpa lives to help Rachel become a full woman. His joy is made complete when little Naomi arrives with that special pendant from Rachel. Janet, I hope you have such grandparents.

I enjoy reading that which you write. I have not read everything you have written and I still am reading things you wrote.  I like the story well,it was very heart warming and made me think of my grandfather who would have accepted me as me if he had lived beyond my nineteen years.  That was 36 years ago.  I still feel saddness and when Naomi died I felt a great loss.
I appreciate your writings and although I see people attack I think it is out of jealousy because they can not write as well as you.

A good story but, one that I think I had a little trouble with. Normally I enjoy everything about Janet's writing.

In this story the author constantly goes from a first person perspective to a completely different one when explaining the story.

This made me constantly subsitue my own words for what was being explained.

However, it still has the touch that only Janet can bring to a story and I accept this as it was an early story posted by Janet and she has improved markedly as she has gained a new style and ability to relate wonderful stories.

Janet, I can't believe that you've never received at least one thank you for this story. I first read it years ago on a different site. I was new to reading tg stores then and afraid to say how much the stores meant to me. I still have my fears but I'm getting better.
 Soon I will get a e mail address. Then I will know if what I say about your stores is ok.
 This story made me cry then and it still does years later. I hope you know how special you are and how much the love you put in your work shows it. THANK YOU SO MUCH, Sally.

      The importance of reader feedback cannot be overstated.   Authors rely on it to improve their future works, and it gives them the incentive to write more stories if they know that their hard work has been appreciated.  I am not saying that comments must all be lauditory.  Authors often appreciate honest, constructive criticism over simple remarks like 'Great story', although simple praise is appreciated also.  There is no limit on how much you can enter in the 'comments' box.   Sentences will automatically word wrap at the end of the line so please do not use your carriage return/enter key except at the end of your paragraphs.

      It is not necessary to use your real name here, and, email addresses are optional.  Posting your email address will allow the author to thank you for taking the time to post your comments, and/or discuss critiques and address possible concerns. 

      Be forewarned that abusive remarks and language will be removed, and the posters may be banned from this AND other areas of StorySite.
