Things just kept going from bad to worse this week, firstly the bridesmaid dresses were way lower than i had orignally thought and seeing the girls try them on, it was just boobs galore. So I'll have to buy new ones. I also changed my mind on colours, it was all going a bit to sugary pink for my liking so I decided to bring in more green and add a few brighter pinks, which is fine and I'm happier for it. Then we get the call from from my dad, his wife has finished making the invites and they really are lovely in everyway except one i'm NOT getting married on 11th September, I'm getting married 11th August!!! Luckily its just a case of reprinting the inside bits. And just when I think I'm losing my mind with all the wedding muck ups. We get the worst possible news my FIL to be has been diagnosed with cancer, it looks to be inoperable and they have to start aggressive chemo immediatly, its been a very teary week as you can probablly imagine for all of us and its only really just sunk in. My only experience with cancer was with my nan when I was a teenager, we found out in the sept and she passed away in the Feb and so i really don't know what to think. Its very early days in finding out and so we really have no answers yet. Now my only hope for the wedding is that he can make it but I know chemo is going to take a lot out of him. Thanks for letting me just get this out guys, its very hard to talk to the family about this as they understanably get very upset.

So, invitations etc are secondary to the news about your FIL2B. I feel sad for you so here are some points to (hopefully) try and help you sort it out in your head.... Firstly, "inoperable" doesn't necessarily mean "really bad", it can also mean "really awkward to get to" or "sitting right next to an artery/nerve/etc (so the risks outweigh the gains)". Secondly, "aggressive" chemo is a subjective term and, again, doesn't necessarily indicate "really bad", it can also mean "FIL2B is generally healthy enough to take this so we'll go all out at the start" (this type of approach not always good with old/young/weak people). Lastly, I don't know how old you are but guessing that you lost your Nan around ten years ago? Treatments and prognoses for cancer are getting better all the time and your FIL2B will get the best possible treatment.

Oh absaloutly, invitations etc are completly secondary. Just ment I was getting into an unnesseary flap and this terrible news has certainly put it all into perspective. He's not a well man as it is so we're all very worried. Its just so hard not knowing exactly how bad it is. Thanks FTLOMB that has helped a little.

? So sorry to hear about your FIL2B. I hope he will be ok. My Mum had breast cancer and they treated it with aggressive chemo. That was back in 2005 and she is still going strong. Obviously I dont know the ins and outs of the situation but I hope he will be ok
