Hi K! We don’t know each other but I gotta say I’m very proud of the response you got since this started. It is a clear example of the love and solidarity that still moves the world. Its been also an honour to participate by betaing 3 of the stories here. Its amazing how you’ve inspired people. I hope you can fulfill your wish to be at the BD2 premiere in...

When first hearing of what was happening with Katalina I wanted to help. I have for the last year I have dealt with my father having be diagnosed with lung cancer. He has gone through chemo, radiation and brachi treatments. I now have a student who has thyroid cancer. While I have not “met” Katalina trough the world of fanfiction, I felt, as I read an AN from Bornonhalloween that I needed to help out with this wonderful mission...

Hi Katalina, I read a lot of ffn, and I saw you mentioned in different A/N’s, so I Googled and came upon this site. I am from Belgium, so I don’t really know how to donate. Also, I’m not very good at writing (too insecure), but I want to let you know that I support you in my heart and mind. I hope you don’t give up and fight as long as you can. I’m not going to pretend that I know how it feels to have this...

I gulp, swallowing the guilt. I know what she looks like naked. She is beautiful and I have spent way too much time today daydreaming about her. Shit if she knew that I violated her privacy in the worse kind of way, I would probably be in jail right now. And now I know she must be a local. I know that I am screwed! She raises her head when I speak. “Hello, Dr. Masen,” she says, smiling. Well, maybe I’m not screwed. “Um, hi,” I...

Katalina, I don’t know you, but I know about you, and I hope with all my heart that you beat this thing. Three years ago, my husband died from a cancer he contracted from the Vietnam War. I was dormant in his system for many years. When it surfaced, it came fast and hard, and even though we knew the when and where…it was still a shock. Cancer takes the mighty down just as easily as it takes the weak. He was a Silver Star...

The Aston Martin braked to a gentle stop in front of the house and Edward turned the car off. He bowed his head for a moment before speaking again. “I’m sorry if you were taken by surprise tonight. It wasn’t my intention to upset you.” “You didn’t, Edward.” “Your body language and the chemicals in your bloodstream say different,” he countered. “Can we just go inside?” I huffed, opening my door and stepping...

I’d noticed that in the past week or so—since our reconciliation—he’d begun this whole ‘protect Bella from the ugly side of the world’ persona. I don’t know why or even where it came from but it was becoming highly f*****g annoying. Don’t get me wrong; it was sweet and all, but there was nothing he or anyone else could expose me to that I hadn’t seen before. This was supposed to be about me helping him. Me being there for...

Edward laughed out loud at himself at how hard he chased Bella back in those days before she finally caved to his advances and became his. Then, it was as if they could never be apart. It was like they craved one another and needed one another desperately. Their love burned white hot, but they were also a fiery couple, their fights intense and volatile. However, their reconciliations after their fights were just as intense. They were both...

My friend Alice is a photographer who specializes in boudoir photography. You know those sexy pictures in the lingerie? Since Edward has to work late, again, Alice came over earlier today and we had a shoot with me on the bike. She was able to get one of the pictures edited today and I had it printed at Target (as long as I promised that the rest would come from her professional printers) so I could have it ready before Edward gets...

Thea peered at me, her face still downturned. She folded her arms on the tabletop and rested her chin. I slid around to her side of the table, pushed her ginger ale out of the way and Kate along with it, and wrapped an arm around my stepdaughter’s tense little shoulders. “It was the second time,” I began in a quiet voice. “For a year I’d been living on your mom’s letters without really knowing it.  When the letters stopped...

Edward walks over to me, eyes dark and wild. With his bare fingers, he chooses deep purple eggplant. It glistens from the sauce and his tongue escapes to catch the excess. My breaths are shallow as I watch him tilt his head back and swallow. “You want?” Edward asks as he stands to my side, his warmth transferring to me. My legs are crossed, and I tighten them further, willing the heat to cool. He places the platter next to me and his...

One morning, Clarence woke up with a tummy ache. Mrs. Marques took him to the vet, not realizing there was a wedding planned at Cullen House that day. Bull calves can get into a lot of trouble when left unsupervised. Some things just shouldn’t happen to a cow. Edward and Bella,...

“Thank you so much, you won’t regret this,” he gushes as he steps through the door, the bell ringing on his way in. Little does he know, I’m already regretting this. I head on back to the display case as he follows closely behind me. I chance a look in his direction to make sure and catch his eyes raking over my body. Did he just check me out? No, no way. I’m sure his eyes were just glancing around to take a look at the shop. He...

I don’t know you, but your story and your courage is so inspiring. I’ve lost family to breast cancer — my grandmother who I’ve never had the fortune of meeting, but also her eldest daughter, my aunt died of breast cancer a few years ago. One day later, I lost my grandmother to another form of cancer as well. It was difficult, but my aunt never suffered and my grandmother always had a smile and the strength of her...
