Kindof a sad subject - but it's reality for some of us! Trying to make the best of a difficult situation. I'm less than 3 months away now, and unfortunately I have a condition that puts me in extreme (I mean, unimaginable, excruciating, insurmountable) pain. It makes it difficult to talk to people, to be a good, welcoming host, even to smile sometimes. It has taken its toll on my self esteem as well - as I'd love to feel beautiful on my wedding day.
I want my guests to know they are loved and welcome. I also want to be somewhat comfortable on my wedding day - but unfortunately there isn't much I can do (it's not a pain that goes away with medication - gotta just live through it). Anyway, anybody else go through anything similar? How do you deal on your wedding day?
Also, most of my guests don't know about my issues or how bad they really are - it's not like I have something like M.S. which, while debilitating, people seem to have some knowledge on - doctors don't really know what's wrong with me, so it's difficult for people to actually have any idea what I'm going through - not sure if this makes a difference in how to deal with guests.
