That is the saddest story ever, I'm so glad I made it to the end though. Thanks for posting.

What a wonderful story! Thank you very much for sharing that. It was written so well. I felt like I was in the mind of "Goobie" the whole time. I am SO glad that it had a happy ending!

I started reading this story thinking "ugh, another emotional masturbation story". But somewhere in the middle of it, it softened me and I was very happy to read the ending.

Beautiful... thanks for sharing.

And yes, once again, I'm crying. No surprise to most, I'm sure.
