A terminally ill man fulfilled his final wish by marrying his sweetheart of 22 years during a ceremony filled with joy, tenderness and love.
"Our wedding was just so special, and it was important to us to finally get married after all these years together. I feel like the luckiest man in theand am so grateful that we did this surrounded by our families and friends so they can carry this day with them forever." Diane, 43, said: “I was so nervous before walking into the church but as soon as I saw Peter all my nerves just melted away. We’ve waited a long time for this day and we are determined to celebrate and remember all the happy times we’ve shared.
Wedding Wish Makers stepped in to help the couple arrange their big day and worked with a host of big-hearted suppliers to make the day as affordable as possible for the couple. “They are an incredible couple who have coped with so much. It was such a privilege to help make their wedding dream day come true.”
The couple were told the surgery had been a success and that the tumour and any cancerous cells surrounding it were gone. Peter was also put on a clinical trial at the Beatson West ofBut in a devastating turn of events, a CT scan to mark the end of the trial in March this year showed his cancer had returned. A further scan in April revealed it was terminal and he is now on borrowed time.
