looking for fic titled "The Case of Erudition Toward Reliance" or the author who wrote it

I realize this is a long shot, but I might as well try. I'm desperately trying to find a fic titled "The Case of Erudition Toward Reliance", it's a canon/book-verse story that was very long and focuses on Dr. Watson caring for Sherlock and administering him enemas along with other possibly-squicky medical procedures.

Unfortunately, the only relic I can find of it's existance is this not so nice webpage http://www.toplessrobot.com/2010/01/fan_fiction_friday_sherlock_holmes_and_watson_in_t.php but the snippets of the fic have me dying to read the whole thing, however I worry that it might have been removed, the link to the full fic on fanfiction.net is now broken.

I found this on google: http://merrily.dreamwidth.org/236308.html?thread=446740&style=site#cmt446740 of another person searching for it and it was mentioned that it might have been xposted to cox_and_co? If anyone knows any place this fic might still exist, or even the name of the author/if they have any other fics (I love how they write and would so like to read more) please let me know! Thank you. :)

Sorry I can't help.

But after reading the summary, I feel compelled to say I'm glad this one is lost!

Yeahhh I realize it might be an unusual sort of request but I'm temporarily shoving all embarrassment aside in the pursuit of finding it! xD Least I can say I tried.

I just really hope in my heart of hearts that if it was truly eradicated from the internet the author did so of their own free will, and not because they were bullied/harassed into removing it. :( But it's been years, so maybe it's just lost to the wasteland of the intertubez.

I am curious! Hope someone finds it. I love Watson taking care of Holmes!!

Exactly!! I do too, and this one was allegedly 13,000 words of it *__* I have to say I wasn't totally sold on the content, but I do love Holmes getting coddled by Watson and it seemed like the author handled it pretty tamely, everything considered lol. Hopefully someone recognizes this or even perhaps remembers the author!

If I were you, I'd try checking subject headers at cox_and_co. Hopefully if the author posted it they also gave the post a title.

The article making fun of the story (cruel!) was posted on 1/15/2010 so it's got to be before that.

That is a good idea, thank you for this! I'll try scanning back a while, maybe I will find it.
