Virginia, an 83-year-old grandma, was hurt when her beloved grandson Ryan didn’t invite her to his wedding. Ryan paid for the whole event, but he was worried about Virginia’s slight dementia and how it might affect the event.
That being said, the truth was even stranger. Claire, Ryan’s fiancée, didn’t want Virginia to be in the wedding pictures because she was too old and in a wheelchair.
Virginia was so upset that she decided to do something. She was determined, so she cancelled the flowers and catering, which put off paying for the place.
When guests got to the wedding day and saw that there was no food or flowers, chaos broke out. When Ryan and Claire talked to Virginia, she said in a calm voice, “I just stopped by to see how things went.”
Her message was simple but strong: love shouldn’t depend on things, and family is important. Ryan admitted he was wrong and said he was sorry many times.
Virginia’s tough love taught Ryan a very important lesson: what you do has effects, and you should respect your family. As soon as Ryan admitted he was wrong, their relationship started to get better.
The strong love of a grandmother is shown in this touching story, which also shows that sometimes we need to learn hard lessons in order to grow.
