I don't want to make this too long but I do need some advice. I am sorry in advance if this is in the wrong section, I am still working my way around.
My nanny is in hospital at the moment as in the stages of diagnosis. I wanted to be there to support her as much as possibe and I have asked her endlessly if there is anything I can do to help.
She has asked me for one thing - a distraction. I asked her to explain and she has told me that she doesn't want any books, she wants to plan something. I asked if she would like to do a coffee morning or plan an event for charity, to which she responded "I have already planned 14 babe, I need a new challenge!"
Well it dawned on me over the last hour that she has been hinting that she won't be around forever and before she passes she would like to see one of her grandchildren get married as she hasn't seen her children get married (neither of them have or want to get married). The only problem is, I am the oldest and my only cousin is 5.
I have a partner and we are very happy together - we have spoken of getting married but it isn't something that we want to do just yet. We don't even want to think of it for another year or so. But I do want to give my nan her wish of a planning distraction and to watch at least one of her grandchildren get married.
Could someone please advise me as to what I should do? I want to bring this up to my other half but I am scared he will dismiss the idea completely after all it is just planning so it can't hurt can it? I am so confused!
