Rodney hurt/comfort

[sgaavidreader.livejournal.com]

Reading stories in the previous request reminded me of how much I enjoy reading stories with a vulnerable Rodney. I'm looking for stories that probably fall in the hurt/comfort category, but with Rodney being the one injured. Most stories seem to have John taking the brunt of the injuries. I would like to read stories with Rodney hurt and John taking care of him, watching over him, trying to protect him, etc. I prefer McShep, but also like gen as long as the emotions are there. I've already read Sandstorms, Broken Trust, and The Warrior of Oz all of which I love immensly. I've also already read Salt of the Earth, which I have a love/hate relationship with (love the story, but can't get past John's "it's me, not you speech"). That said, please bring on the injured Rodney, (but absolutely no deathfic! I have no desire to be heartbroken.)

(This is a trope I love. I'll separate the gen from the McShep in two separate comments)

My favorite type of gen fic is those with strong John/Rodney friendship, so:
