We went this past Saturday to get LO's 1st birthday and cake smash pics taken. We used the gal we've used for all of our family photos. We got them done early because we want to display them at LO's bday party on May 28th. The original plan was for photographer to get the disk of edited pics in the mail to us by Tuesday of this week, since she and her husband were leaving for Mexico on Wednesday of this week.
Well, unfortunately, on Sunday night, her son collapsed and had a seizure. He was rushed by ambulance to the ER. They didn't know what caused it and sent him home. Monday morning he saw his pediatrician. They said "it's a waiting game now to see if it happens again". That night he collapsed and had another one.
Tuesday, at the children's hospital, the neurologist diagnosed him with epilepsy. He was supposed to have an MRI yesterday, but something happened, and the MRI got pushed back until tomorrow. So, they're still at the Children's hospital with him.
When I saw the news about her son on Monday, I sent her a message telling her that I totally understood that she has her hands full with something far more important than my pics, and that if she needed to take a bit longer to get the pics to us, that was ok, as we still have plenty of time before the party.
Well, now, as things are looking more serious with her son, I don't know what to do. I DO NOT want to bug her with this. My pics are the last thing she needs to be worrying about. But, I am wondering, should I book another session with a different photographer and hope to get the pics back in time? Or should I just wait? I just don't want to bother her about this, and I don't want her to be stressed about this, but I'd still like to have pics of C at her party.
WWYD? Would you book another session? Or just wait, and if you have them you have them, if you don't you don't?
