Fics like A Grief Absorbed, A Gift Granted

"Our miracles come in pairs, it seems. Last time, I received my memories back the same night we were blessed with Teddy. This time, I survived this train crash, and we have been blessed with this little one, whomever they may be." The same day he survives the train crash, Patrick also finds out that he and Shelagh are expecting another baby, which is quite a shock. What follows is a year full of grief and joy, sorrow and surprises, hope and healing. This story picks up where the previous story left off, as a re-write of the Series 11 finale; will cover the Christmas Special; and then will mainly be a re-write of Series 12. It will focus on Shelagh and Patrick as they deal with unexpected changes and challenges, the beautiful friendship between Shelagh and Sister Julienne, and--similarly to the first work in this series--as much hurt/comfort as I can fit into the sequel. :) NOTE: As of 12/28/2025, I have finished fixed the formatting of this story, removing the blockquotes.
