Wedding postponed.

I know Devon and Ashley follow me on Twitter, I'm not sure who else but if you have then you already know my moms condition. I drove home Saturday night because my mom was undergoing an emergency colostomy. Diverticulitis runs in my family, my uncle had the surgery when he was only 36 after a rupture. She has 3-6 months recovery time. The wedding has been put off for a year. I'm ok with it because I'm just happy to have my mom :) I'll still be sticking around here bc I have another year to plan! Lol. Love you girls <3

    awwww, you poor thing.  I'm so sorry to hear about your Mom, but I'm really glad she will be okay.  I'm impressed with your positive attitude.  Weddings will always come in second after family!

    Wow, Angel, I'm so sorry this has happened to your mom.  But, I'm glad that it sounds like she's going to be okay.  I agree with Sarah, it sounds like you have a really good attitude about it, but I'm sure it's still disappointing so I feel for you.  I wish your mom a speedy recovery!

    Oh no! I'm so sorry but glad your mom is okay! My Dad had this too and I tend to take after him :/  He had 12 inches of his small intestine removed.  It's a hard recovery, but so worth it.  So glad you're being optimistic - and yay for more time to plan and save! :) Great attitude girl - thoughts and prayers are with you all!

    Sure hope your mom recovers smoothly and swiftly! Diverticulitis runs in my dad's family too, so I totally get what your fam's going through. Best of luck to you in the modified wedding plans, too! :)

    Yep. Colon and a ft of intestine removed. I'm next to get checked. Ugh.

    I'm sorry to hear about your mom, but I'm glad that she's ok. I'm sure you know this, but the nurse in me can't help but say, make sure to eat a healthy diet with plenty of fiber.
