I was determined not cry reading this, and yet, here I go again. Very bittersweet this one, Ell. I especially like this line:
It seems ironic – in the bitterest sense of the word – that I should finally have a family, fall head over heels for them and then have to give it all up again so that I can save them.
I think that's how a lot of us fans felt as well. Just when it seemed that C/C/A were finally coming together and COULD be a family, they were torn apart.
I really like the way you wrote the last paragraph, as well. It's nice to remember that moment in the episode and envision your take on what exactly Charlie was thinking/seeing at that moment.

Great work as usual!
