sad news- need hugs

Original post by snowcat

Hey everyone...I haven't posted in a while bc I'm not feeling like planning my wedding recently. My mom was recently diagnosed with very progressed cancer and there is a very good chance we may be moving up the wedding to within the next two months so she can be there- it's really sad too, bc she is actually my step-mom, my birth mother died of cancer when I was a little girl- it's just so sad to go through it again. FH is really understanding and also wants my mom to be at our wedding, but it is so hard to get into planning when I'm feeling so down.

Anyway, I need some suggestions about which vendors can do things very quickly- I haven't even gone dress shopping yet- any place besides davids' bridal that delivers quickly? Any other vendors (we have the majors- photo-dj-hall-video) that you know of who can plan things quickly? Thanks.

I am soooooo sorry to hear the news

I think I remember hearing/reading somewhere that Da Vinci Bridal has a 1 week turnaround for wedding gowns (maybe not all styles, but at least some of them).

Re: sad news- need hugs*** updated

thanks again to everyone being so supported, I truly appreciated. Anyway, just wanted to let everyone know we got fairly good news today- the cancer has not gone to my mom's brain- so it is def. not stage 4, and has not spread beyond her chest and the doctors said it was 'treatable'- I don't know if that means that she will completely recover, but it is certainly a better situation than what we thought last week!

*** Oh, and at mom's request, we will be leaving the wedding in November- she says she wants something to get better for

That's a sigh of releif! I'm glad the prognosis is better than you expected.
