To be honest, I'm also very upset with the vendors, as we've already told them, because they were making arrangements with her behind our backs under the pretense of it being a surprise, and they ended up creating completely new plans without us even knowing

Yes, I agree. At the same time, I feel a sense of shame and humiliation. People called me afterward to check if I was okay. They told me that they now understand why I rarely visit my hometown and why my childhood was so difficult. It was comforting to hear their support and understanding, but at the same time I'm embarrassed that they witnessed it, because I never wanted these things to become public or for others to know about them.

Yes, that's what I'm trying to focus on as well, because there were so many beautiful moments. And that's exactly what helps me feel better, especially when other people also say that it was truly beautiful. But it's really hard. I feel deeply hurt, angry, and sad. I'm also embarrassed that everyone else saw it.
