Background
E and I met in 2008 in a chance meeting. I was newly separated contemplating life as a single mother with a young child who I will refer to as T who happens to have autism so has additional challenges. E worked in the Cruise Industry and was on a business trip. We hit it off straight away and what I thought would be a long distance friendship soon flourished into a long distance relationship. He flew back and forth to the UK 5 times in 12 months and T and I made a few trips to Australia. We planned to move to Oz but the level of care and provision for Autism in the UK could not be matched over there so he made the big decision to give up a great life there so we could be together here. We got engaged in October 2010 and from then on the wedding planning began.
