Disabled/chronically looking for some overdue joy
Back when Hubby and I were engaged, I bought a wedding dress and shoes. But later on before the wedding, I almost died. It was really scary, I was left permanently disabled, with horrible PTSD that left me afraid to leave my house, and for months I wasn't sure if I might still die from the ongoing issues. Hubby and I decided that we should just get married while I was in the hospital for various legal and financial reasons, but also because I didn't want to die without marrying him and he felt the same. We just did the paperwork and made it official with no real ceremony. Our intention was to do a 1 year anniversary vow renewal/reception and I could wear my dress. Something similar to what folks do when they elope. But my health didn't improve much for multiple years and because of all the medical bills and losing my job due to the issues, we couldn't afford to do anything. No celebration, no honeymoon, nothing to mark the occasion. Flash forward it will be 10 years. My dress is still in a bag in my closet. I'm a wheelchair user now, but it could be altered. I was thinking of hiring a photographer and doing an anniversary photo shoot where I where my dress and he wears a tux. Is that weird? I was thinkng a 10 year vow renewal too. Thoughts? Money is still an issue and my health is still poor, but I need some joy.
