As a baby, Lauren was diagnosed with a heart condition that required her to need an artificial pulmonary valve. Her condition has made her susceptible to health problems, and when she came down with a stomach flu, she was admitted to the hospital.
Lauren’s doctors told her bacteria had spread to her heart, and she would need to stay in the hospital for six to seven weeks for treatment, dashing her hopes of dress Prom Dresses Outlet shopping with her mother Shannon.
"The day we were actually (going to) go prom dress shopping was the day I ended up in the emergency room,” Lauren said.
Shannon was disappointed too.
"As her mom, I was looking so forward to the experience. Just going shopping and having her enjoy the experience and us to enjoy it together," Shannon said.
So Shannon took matters into her own hands, and reached out to the Camille La Vie store inside Memorial City Mall. She was hoping the store manager would allow her to rent a few dresses for her daughter so she could try them on in the hospital and select the dress she loved. But the store manager had something better in mind.
"We brought all of these Prom Dresses On Sale dresses and some shoes just so Lauren can figure out what style she likes” said Jordan Mays, assistant manager of Camille La Vie.
The staff brought dresses that Lauren picked out, as well as some of their own selections, so that Lauren could try them on in her hospital room.
