I'm a little sad (kind of long)
I had planned to have both of my parents walk me down the aisle. They both raised me & I love them both & I wanted to have them both make that walk with me. Well, my mom has MS & we knew it would be tough fo her to walk down the 80ft aisle as it was, but last week, she broke her pelvis. She will most likely need a wheelchair for a few weeks & to make things easier on her, she'll probably have one at my wedding.
She called me from the hospital a few days ago & I could tell she was getting choked up & then she came out and said, 'You realize I may not be able to walk down the aisle with you now, right? I think it would be too hard for the 3 of us to fit down together with me wheeling myself & I would just feel uncomfortable doing that to you.' I know she's right & I told her not to cry because I had a great idea. My mother is going to be sitting in the first pew & when my father & I get there, she will get up & join us & hopefully be able to walk the last few feet to the alter with me & my dad. She really liked that idea too.
I just realized today though that now I will not have my mother with me in those last few minutes outside the church before I go down the aisle & that is making me so sad.![]()
