Hall Drama.. Get a load of this.... (mini-update @bottom)

So most of you know my situation with my surgery and changing the date of my wedding, etc. etc.

So today I call the Swan Club to talk to them about changing the date to next May for a 'wedding celebration' since we are eloping in Nov.

My original BM has left, so now I get on the phone and speak to a different one, I explain my entire story, I had surgery and now expect to have another one sometime late fall/early winter, so I'd like to change the party to next spring.

He gives me some lecture on how they have been turning people away from this date and everytime they do that they lose $10,000 blah blah blah.. so I tell him listen I can give you letters from my doctors, and he is like it's not that we don't believe you but we lose money everytime you change your mind.. I was like huh?? I only changed once...

So then he tells me I have to call you back, about an hour later he calls back saying the manager wants me to cancel my date, and start over with a new deposit, I say why? since you already have close to $4000 of my money, he says well you won't get that back, you have to give a new deposit and start over and IF we rebook Sept 17th, then you will get SOME of the money back, but only if we rebook the date..

SO I said your contract states that if I cancel then I lose my orginial $1000 deposit, not the whole amount we've paid and he says no if you read our contract it says we reserve the right to sue you for the balance of the money due on the event (which we would never do to you, he says) but we will not give you a refund nor apply the difference to your new date, and oh by the way I am not even sure I should re book this since you have such health issues to deal with W T F?????

SO now I am totally P-offed and haven't a clue what to do..

Any suggestions?
