Harry asks why, and DD answers "You are with me."
that DD is not worried because "I am with you."
We've had many mentions of the tears and heartaches caused by the
beauty of DD's line at the end... it just struck me as all the more
meaningful given that (IMO obviously deliberate) foreshadowing and
turnaround from the early part of the book.

I agree with you Heather, it was beautiful. It made my heart beat
faster, it really touched me, to have the greatest wizard of the age
trust a 16 year old. In the beginning as you say, Harry is scared of
a possible atteack, but he doesn't worry because he's with
Dumbledore. And then, DD is poioned, in a lot of pain, and he
doesn't worry because Harry's with him. I think it was a way for DD
saying "Harry, my time's done, now it's up to you to save the world"
Juli - convincing herself there's no point of even trying to catch
up with all the message.
