Well, I think I just had my first wedding week metldown. My mom just told me that she talked to my brother, and his wife, my SIL, may not come and I immediately burst into tears at work. Her aunt, who is like a second mom, is dying of cancer and has maybe 1-2 months left. They live about 3 hours away as well. I feel conflicted, because I know how hard that is. My dad died of cancer, but I went to a good friend's wedding 2 days before he died because there was nothing I could do, and I wanted to be there for her. I already feel hurt because FI's sister didn't come to the shower, so clearly that meant nothing to her. And now my SIL who has been family for 8 years, is all, well.. your wedding isn't that important? I mean, she can easily come up for just the day, we visit them for the day a lot. Our family is tiny so if she doesn't come, honestly, I don't know if I'd be able to get past that for a long time. Ugh.
