Jen: No, I didn't mean my comment upthread literally. As I said in 
post 109065, I was comparing a wandless, defenseless Lily at the 
moment Voldemort killed her with the unicorn in the forest that was 
slayed for its blood. Voldemort believed by killing Harry he would 
remove his last obstacle to immortality & instead he cursed himself. 
My images were just meant to be symbolic. 

If anything, I agree that dragon's blood may have possibly been used 
for protecting Harry.
