My FFIL is not in the best health, he recently went into the hospital with a rare bacteria in his blood. The doctors wanted to tank his immune system and jump start it to get rid of the bacteria. This became a problem as while they began to do this, one of his serious health problems came back. They sent him home and managed to get rid of the bacteria however he is still in a decline due to this other problem that he has told my FH he is refusing treatments for, it being the fourth time in his lifetime that he is dealing with it.
My FFIL and I have not had the best start to our relationship, he has some anger issues and a temper to boot so there were some rough times to say the least. He has gotten help and some medicine to level him out and help with his anger issues. Since FFIL and FMIL have separated he has been dealing with more stress and depression then normal and with this old health problem now he is on a decline and FH and I are unsure if he will be around for our May 2020 wedding. Our relationship has improved a great deal and I want him to see one of his children get married. My FSIL is engaged and will be getting married later next year but her future in-laws are paying for the wedding ( I believe, I could be wrong about it.) so she can not move her wedding up and my other FSIL is single leaving it to myself and FH.
So while we are still planning a May ceremony and reception for our extended family, I am now planning a little intimate ceremony with FFIL and my two FSILs, my mother, dad and step dad, and five of our six bridal party. We are looking at August 18th for our new ceremony and I hope that FFIL can make it until then but it is a wait and see at this point. To say that FH and I are stressed out is an understatement.
