I will keep her in my prayers. I wish her well and soon. Keep a positive outlook and things will always look better. What is your niece's name? Suzie-Q

If the dress doen't come in your size then maybe your friend is just sparing you some embarrassment. I know that when I got married 5-1/2 years ago at the time I had my best friend and my sisters in my line. Now my new best friend is the greatest and she was asked to be in our friends wedding, but she told her no with no explaination. She told me because she would feel uncomfortable in a dress because of her size. I think that size doens't matter, but being over weight myself I would wear a gurtal. Just go because she is your friend and she will know that in the future because you came. Suzie-Q

Hi! everyone, my niece had gastric bypass surgery two year ago in Houston, Every since she had the surgery she has had problems. Her stoma closed they had surgery to open it, she had gallbladder surgery. they had to feed her intravenus and give her B12, and iron, now she back in the hosipital for five weeks. Her food is not absorbing and she has a blood clot in her neck. Please pray for her.

Marie, coming form someone *****cently got married, weddings are expensive and there are many factors that go into how many brides maids a person can have ( more BM gifts to buy, a larger limo or maybe even 2... at $400 a pop, this can be quite a concern.) seems you two just aren't as close as you once were and although you are important to her and her fiance still, they're may be a number of girls she has llimited herself to and unfortunately those she picked may be closer to them now than you are. I know it hurts, i had to make some hard decisions in my process as well. But all who i loved i was still sure to invite, glad they could share my day with me even though they were not standing there next to me. If you confront her, she may then feel bad for hurting your feelings and ask you to become a BM, (as happened when a friend of mine got married... she HAD to ask one girl outta guilt) but remember the cost involved for you ($150-200 on a dress you will NEVER wear again) and feeling last minute. You obviously know them and i don't but i just wanted to be the devils advocate and maybe look at things from a different prospective! Good Luck either way! ( but don't miss out on your friends' big day ~ you'll regret it in the end, that i know!)
