I am officially a married woman and my wedding day could know have been more perfect! The weather was gorgeous and everything seemed to fall into place even better than I had planned.
I just need to vent about my crazy aunt. As some of you know, I had a destination wedding in the Canadian Rockies. I sent my Oma (grandma) an invite, but was not expecting her to come do to her health. I was pleasantly surprised when she RSVPed yes. I later caught wind that my crazy aunt had coerced her to come so that my Oma would pay half of the way there. I was not very pleased about that. I came to know that my aunt regularly left oma unattended for extended periods of time in the van so she could go off site seeing or shopping. I saw pictures of my aunt almost pushing her up a hiking trail. My sister asked about these pictures and my aunt proudly said she practically pulled her up the hill.
Anyway, the day after the wedding, my Oma had a fall in a driveway and is now in the hospital with two broken ribs. I feel as though this could have been avoided had my aunt taken better care of her. I am livid and don't know what to do. Last I heard, my aunt is flying back home and living my oma high and dry in the hospital. I will drive to that city (5 hours away) and accompany her on a flight home if need be. Thus far all tests have come back normal (trying to rule out a stroke or heart attack as a cause of the fall).
Why is common sense not so common?
