Yes, well... What if Hedwig dies before that? Like when Harry's at 
Dursleys - say DEs killed Petunia and Vernon (maybe also Dudley), 
thus destroying Harry's protection, *Hedwig* sacrifices herself for 
Harry, but DEs don't notice and Harry gains ANOTHER scar while the DE 
dies (and his companions carry the body away)...

As Hedwig's been Harry's only contact to wizarding world, he's now on 
his own. (A clue in CoS?: "We didn't have any choice" - "Why didn't 
you send us a letter? You do have an owl, don't you?" - well, what if 
Harry no longer *has* an Owl?) What is he to do? Particularly if the 
front door is locked, he has no key and his wand etc. are inside?
