Sorry, I really just need to vent.
Everything was perfect at Christmas, we were due to be married abroad mid 2017, to my best friend. Our finances were fine and had booked all our suppliers for our small group going.
But a couple days after christmas, my mum was taken into hospital with headaches.
I automatically had a gut feeling which was confirmed a week later that she had cancer.
Straight away my partner and i decided we wanted my mum to be there so cancelled our original wedding, took the hit on the lost money & began looking into registry offices but stumbled upon the dream package of a venue we dreamt of for 1/3 of the price due to late availability.
We booked it and gave ourselves 3 months to plan it. I had the worst feeling, it had to be done quickly.
It felt impossible but thankfully (despite the odd issue) in 2 months we have found perfect suppliers etc to help make our day special, but it wasn't without hours of research/contacting and sleepless nights.
On top of that, I had a theory test to master (spoiler : I passed) so stress of studying began to ware me down while now panicing about my upcoming practical in may.
My brother was taken in due to a tear in his stomach and awaiting what they need to do to repair.
Then dashing back and forth to the mothers miles away ensuring she was ok, but sadly told 2 weeks ago that it is terminal and they can not find the primary so chemo isn't really an option.
Hearing this news made my stomach turn and had to take a couple of days off work to process the news, but in doing so, I discover my work don't pay for "sick days" and lost a few hundred pound which I REALLY could have done with.
I am coming down with every illness - feeling worn - so very tired as Im struggling to sleep and feel so selfish that I want to focus on the wedding and praying with all my might that my mum makes it to the wedding.
But I feel ill and again selfish as she is getting sicker and sicker and palliative care has now been arranged that I have the I'll feeling that she might not be there but I still feel I NEED this wedding to go ahead for my own sanity and because I know she would kill me if I didn't.
I'm petrified something will happen just before it that I'm struggling to look forward to the wedding and just feeling do bogged down.
Has anyone else ever been in a similar situation or feel the same way.
I'm just so tired ☹️
