Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Worst day and best friends ever

I just thought I would share this story...

My best friend asked me to be in her wedding last November, and with some anxiety, I accepted. I spent the night before at the bride's house and the morning of the wedding dawned as awful as I had anticipated. I spent the morning fighting the bride for the use of the only bathroom in the house (not that she was anxious to spend long periods of time there after one of my visits). She and the other bridesmaids (most of whom I didn't know) were so kind and understanding! They told me I didn't need to go get my hair done (but I did anyway) and then we developed a plan for the church. They put me on the end of the row, closest to the side door. As long as I could walk down the aisle, I could continue out the side door to the bathroom, and then come back in time to return down the aisle at the end. It turns out that I made it the whole way through the ceremony without having to leave. I declined to ride the limo between the ceremony and reception, and instead went back to the bride's house to relax. I even made it to the reception (but only drank tea).

Most people don't understand exactly what is wrong, but it is so nice to have such understanding friends!
