Modern Bride Magazine?

Not sure how many of you read the comments posted on my blog. I read them all and enjoy reading them. I received an interesting one the other day. Part of it went like this:

  • Hi Sheri...I am writing an article for Modern Bride magazine about engaged couples facing serious illness. I have talked to a lot of couples who dealt with cancer together. Most of them waited until after their treatment to go forward with their weddings. I would love to be able to share the story of someone who opted to go ahead and have their wedding...I wish you the best with your treatment.Catherine

Interesting! So I contacted Catherine this week and did a short interview with her over the phone. We mostly talked about my decision to keep my wedding as is as opposed to postponing it or even moving it up and doing something smaller. Many of you know that was one the many hard decisions I had to make when I was diagnosed. Looking back I know I made the right decision and was sooo happy I didn't change a thing. I credit Shane for making sure I had the wedding I always dreamed of (I know he would have loved to just elope) and my doctors for working the schedule of treatments around my wedding.

Anyways, Catherine was really nice to talk to (I have to say that because she is probably still reading my blog!) No really she was very nice. She says the article will be published in the fall. I will keep you all updated if/when the article is published.

PS A new post 2 days in a row....what is up with that? I must be feeling good! I am actually.

PPS Brigitte will be back to posting for me next week. I miss her perspective on all of this and the funny things she adds in.

I can't wait to read the article. I think you were so smart to keep your wedding as it was. It was a beautiful wedding. It will be fun to read what the article says- not just about you but about others too. Oh and I love reading your posts but Brigitte really is funny how she puts things. It will be fun to hear from her again.

Tell her to include one of your many cute wedding pictures. Maybe she wants one of your cute sister also!

That will be so interesting to read! As you were making this decision Jeff and I talked a lot about what we would do if it were us. I think that you made the perfect decision. You two are just right for each other. I love reading posts from both you and Brigitte.

Dangling Modifier Alert: "You two are just right for each other. I love reading posts from both you and Brigitte." Although Brigitte and Sheri make a cute pair, I assume you meant Shane and Sheri are perfect together ;)

FUN!!! I can now say I know someone who is famous! Just kidding, but I definitely want to hear about the publication, and I plan to cut out the article and give the rest of the magazine to the next modern bride to be :)
