RSVP Vent

Original post by T E R I

I just got the mail and had some RSVP's and finally recieved my grandma's RSVP and its checked declined with no note included, no explanation, nothing. I have hardly any family coming to the family as it is-8 members, it would have been 9 with her and now she's not coming, she helped raised me and she won't be there. I'm sooo annoyed by this, she treated it like she doesn't know me and just checked the box. I know its hard for her to travel here, she lives in Kentucky now, but my mom was going to help her and make all the arrangements for her to come.

She was invited to the engagement party-didn't come, sent no card, invited to the shower-didn't come, sent no card, now this. I can't take it.

Thankfully I treat my friends as my family and they will all be there

Thanks for listening

Re: RSVP Vent

I totally understand how you feel. My grandparents are not coming either but did not even send back the RSVP card just told my mom. Same thing as you too: no cards for anything. I know it hurts a lot but I try to remember how the people who are the closest to me will be there.

I am so sorry. I completely understand and would be heart broken if my grandmother didn't come to my wedding. What if you called her and asked if there was something you could do to help her get here for that day? Let her know how much it means to you.

Re: RSVP Vent

I know how you feel -- my grandfather, for health reasons, can't make the trip out to LI from Brooklyn and BECAUSE HE DOESN'T WANT TO BE LEFT AT HOME, my grandMOTHER is not coming either!!! This makes me so mad. He's not willing to discuss having an aide come to be with him so my grandmother can see me get married. I would only want her there for the ceremony part.

Your grandma may have just checked the box because it might be hard emotionally for her to articulate any further not being there. It might be bothering her as much as you. Have you had a conversation with your parents? Could they help fill in the blanks that her card has left?

Re: RSVP Vent

Thank you all, you are all great!!!!

My mom called her and she gave alot of run around answers which we knew would be coming, so I'm just moving on with everything and focusing on the good right now and deal with these other issues latter
