Hello,
I had mentioned in previous posts that at the beginning of January we found out my MIL2B's cancer was terminal and they gave us 3-6months. We decided to move our wedding forward from November this year to February so she could be there, which at the time was 7 weeks away. That was 3 weeks ago and i have been planning like mad and booking things, calling every stockist of maggie sottero dresses in the uk (literally) to find my dress in the right size and colour. And then on tuesday of last week (25th) it became apparant that she was fading fast and there was no way she would make the wedding so we held a blessing in the hospice chapel 2 days later, which she attended in her bed, with a few immediate family. Then last night she passed away peacefully with me and OH with her, holding her hands.
Just can't believe how quick it's been and how unfair the whole thing is. She really was a lovely lady who had looked after and cared for others all her life (she was only 59). I always felt really lucky to have such a nice MIL2B when some people have terrible stories.
We've said that we will go ahead with the wedding in February now anyway as it's almost all sorted and would actually be harder to un-do it all then re-do it for November. Plus i think we need something nice to hold on to.
Sorry for such a depressing post on such a happy forum, just needed to vent I think. Thanks for reading it x
