During this whole fiasco, Lauren’s mother never mentions anything about trying to get a doctor’s advice on the situation.
Lauren’s mother eventually told her that she should tell Jessica about the chickenpox, and if Jessica was okay with her going, that’d be fine.
But Lauren was already extremely distraught and frustrated, so she backed out of the wedding completely.
Now, things are extremely tense between Lauren and her mother. Her mother writes that she tries to give Lauren as much adult freedom as possible but that when it comes to potentially affecting the health of others, she has to lay down the law.
Lauren is heartbroken to have missed her best friend’s wedding day and blames her mother.
Other Reddit users commented on the mother’s post, saying that there was more that could’ve been done in this situation.
“Why didn’t you get her to consult a doctor to see if she was contagious?” commented one user.
