Bees, My mother in law (were not married yet but weve been together for 10 years and she has always called me her daughter in law) died last Friday in her sleep at the age of 51! She wasnt really sick just had a cough. We buried her yesterday and it was so hard my Fiance is the youngest of her children and the only boy! This is so unreal…my heart breaks for him he was just saying how he cant wait to dance with his mom at our wedding…now he’s going to dance with his step mother who is 80…but we are a little over 2 months away from the wedding and have so much to do but after putting up our wedding money for the funeral im stressing about paying off the wedding and Im tring not to bring it up ANY wedding details because i dont want to upset him…

No autoposy was done because she did not have insurance and with the funeral costing so much they didtn get one done…were assuming she had pneumonia…

@blondebride2: You need insurance for an autopsy?? I never knew that. I just thought they were required by law.
As far as the wedding goes, if you’re like me the harder you try not to talk/think about something, the more you do. It might be good to go ahead and ask your Fiance, “Do you feel like we need to postpone the wedding? I don’t want to put pressure on you, but now would be a good time to let people know.” He’ll probably say no, let’s go ahead (and maybe you’ve already had that convo). Then you can just say “okay, I’m gonna keep working on it so you don’t have ot think about it, but I don’t want it to look callous if I’m wedding planning.”
