Two things...

[rhia-starsong.livejournal.com]

1. I'm looking for any and all stories dealing with John's family.  I don't care if they're canon or au, though I'll admit to a strong preference for both post-Outcast and AU fix-its.

2. Any fics dealing with Sheppard in physical therapy after an injury.  It doesn't have to be the main point of the fic, but I'd like it to be more than a hand-wavey mention.

Thanks!

For number Two:

“Exhuming McCarthy” (http://everybetty.livejournal.com/12509.html). By everybetty and Kristen999. Long, plotty Sheppard recovery story with tons of medical research.

Keiramarcos wrote a couple with John's family. My personal favorite is "What Might Have Been" which has his father,Dave and another brother she created as well as a son he did not know about.You don't mention if you like slash but if you do she really fleshes out their family dynamic in a way the show never bothered to. I think she also has them in "The Ties That Bind" Her site is keiramarcos.com or you can probably get there through Mcshep slash at livejournal

I love fic with John's family. I've got 23 of them bookmarked so far:

Unfortunately I'm still working on descriptions and tags for my Delicious account, but I promise they all have something to do with his family.

For #1

i meant "wrote" doh!

[bluespirit-star.livejournal.com]

I wrote a McShep AU for last year's Big Bang that deals with John & his family.
'Solitary Man' (http://sgabigbang.talkoncorners.net/?view=fic&id=73) (link goes to the BB website) or it's on LJ here (http://community.livejournal.com/starshinedreams/61954.html#cutid1) if you prefer.

Summary: John Sheppard was used to being on his own. He'd been booted out of the Air Force, was estranged from his family and was haunted by the guilt of everyone he'd ever let down. Then a wrong turn on a snowy night changed his life forever.

[rhia-starsong.livejournal.com]

Yes, I loved that fic! I had to read it all in one go it was so gripping.

[bluespirit-star.livejournal.com]

That's so nice to hear - thank you! :-)

[hasida.livejournal.com]

Don't know if this is quite what you're looking for (and feeling a little weird blowing my own trumpet) but I just got around to posting two Vegas AU fics both of which deal with John's connection to his brother and mother (post Outcast).

Lonely Man of Faith (http://hasida.livejournal.com/9829.html) and the sequel I said in my Haste, all Men are Liars (http://hasida.livejournal.com/10032.html)
