This is unbelievable sad! It makes me feel so sorry for them. I doubt that Wilson would be able to understand House's motives. To House would be the ultimate absolution but for Wilson, I guess, would be the worst punishment.

It's a incredible insight into House's pain, physical and emotional.

i just don't think that wilson could shoulder any more hurt for house, and still be able to function. that's my theory, anyway.

It's a incredible insight into House's pain, physical and emotional.

thanks so much!!

Oh, wonderful companion piece to "What Wilson Knows." Makes sense that House would view his pain as an entity-- making it feel as if there are three people involved in this story. I'd really like to see if House can actually have that conversation before the last day comes, or if Wilson is going to have to force the issue (though Wilson certainly isn't any better at those type of confrontations than House is.) Actually, now that I think about it, Pain will definitely be the one to force the two of them to finally talk to each other.

Thanks for another great story!

ironic, isn't it? chronic pain causes much of house's 'shut-down' from the rest of the world--yet it's also what allows him to be more open with wilson than he'd otherwise be. that's why, in the show, it kills me when wilson chooses to deny its brutal reality. [relax, mj; thirdseasonisover, thirdseasonisover....]

I've been avoiding this because it hurts me to think about -- so I guess you've done your job well.

Oh, House. Get your friend to give you something stronger than Vicodin, something without the acetaminophen; solve the problem some other way. Don't commit suicide by Wilson.

*sigh*

That thing about his wanting it to be a friend who does this to/for him? Just breaks me into tiny little horsey bits.

ahhh--i've been awaiting your reaction to this with bated [or--in a nod to the pit--baited] breath! and he doesn't want it to be 'a friend'; it's gotta specifically be wilson, because i believe that house believes that wilson is the only human being who truly cares about him. ymmv.

Ow... so beautiful, so sad... it's always sad when there's no choice, and in the end, Pain will always be stronger. I hope House will make sure to let Wilson know what he knows, otherwise Wilson will feel forever guilty after the inevatible... Thanks for sharing this.

I hope House will make sure to let Wilson know what he knows

because neither house nor wilson seems quite ready to let this whole thing go, we may, in fact, get to see that. as long as they keep talking, i'll keep listening!
