Amputation

[splitbeak.livejournal.com]

Hello Folks!

I'm feeling a little cheated by a certain episode and am now aching for some stories dealing with amputation. (I'm probably not the only one.) So if anyone should happen to know some good fics where a character is faced with the possibility of losing a limb (doesn't actually have to happen, just a close call) and would like to point me in the right direction, it would be greatly appreciated.

I know Titan5 wrote an awesome fic of this nature called Act of Desperation and Kyrdwyn wrote one called Finding Balance.

The only fics I'm not looking for are ones where Rodney loses his tongue. Personal quirk. Gen, slash, het, bring it on.

Thanks a lot!

Come and Join the Dance (http://mirabile-dictu.slashcity.net/SGA/Dance.html) by mirabile_dictu is wonderful. Rodney/Teyla but generous helpings of team as well.

Webmaster is good about adding new ones if you see some that aren't listed.

There's amputation in vain-glorious's Light of Compassion. It's not the main theme, but it's there.

Story is LONG and dark horror with multiple character deaths, so be warned.

Thanks for the story and the warnings.

OMG! I feel you! I too, felt VERY cheated by that episode, and was imagining future john living the life as an amputee! Thank you so much for this, and now I am off to read some wonderful fic!
