Now my theory, I got this idea from both some of the comments here and reading about how Lily had sacrificed herself for her son and put that aura or protection on him.
Couldn't have DD done the same thing when he was murdered?
I mean placed that same form of protection on Harry to carry him through when Lily's protection ceases on Harry's 17th birthday?
D'oh! Brilliant!
