Countdown Until My Wedding: 37 days Permanent Wedding Date

      My health has been a constant problem since I was 12 years old. Since that time I have only had a few scattered days that were peaceful and health problem free... What I have learned from living 16 years with chronic health and fatigue issues, is that life does not slow down and stop when you need to slow down and stop. Life keeps going and if you stop what you are doing even for just a little bit, there are huge life pieces that pass you by. It's not fair, but it happens.

     My fiance and I picked a permanent wedding date - meaning that no matter what happens health wise we are getting married on September 27. This was a decision that we both prayed about and decided on, and to be honest it takes some serious thinking and commitment. Because the human mind loves to say "what if" and you sometimes start thinking of everything that can go wrong. But having experienced a lot of what my life has thrown at me, I am not putting my life on hold, especially when I know we are doing the right decisions.

Countdown Until My Wedding: 36 days Bridesmaid's dresses

Countdown Until My Wedding: 38 days


     Today I want to talk about my wedding dress. The original plan was that my mom was going to sew from scratch my wedding dress. But my mom, even though she is an amazing and excellent seamstress, felt like that was way too much pressure. We eventually found a wedding dress at a second hand store (blind budget 😎) for only $200. I want to thank everyone who has given financially to us as you don't even know how much of a blessing you truly are!!

     While the wedding dress was in great condition for being used, my mom still needed to make alterations because I am a little short. So she needed to add lace to the neckline because there was too much cleavage showing, shorten the sleeves for my little wittle arms, and shorten the length of the dress. One of the blind accessibility things we are doing for my wedding is I will be wearing flats so as not to need my cane to walk down the aisle, so the dress needed to be shorter in the front than usual as most wear some kind of heel.




Make sure to come back tomorrow as I will be discussing why my fiance and I picked a permanent wedding date! Comment down below what other things you would love to hear from me!

Dealing with Memory Loss


  • isolated 
  • frustrated 
  • something's wrong 
  • hard 
  • not understanding 
     These are just a few of the emotions I was dealing with today. I don't remember completely forgetting, but I forgot who my family was, who my fiance was and even myself. I am recovering from today's episode, but wish they would stop and go away. Days like today make me feel like I am getting behind in my list of 'to-do's' and also make me feel estranged with family, friends and loved ones. 
     My frustration is eased a little, by knowing I am with my family that loves me and takes care of me and also that my fiance has promised to always be there for me. I have stressed induced ADD meaning that when I have problems like this, or if I am overwhelmed with any kind of emotion, it's harder for me to think and process what's going on, what I want to say and communicate and to try to make decisions.
