Is this little girl with the youngest to get #married? - http://clapway.com/2015/07/20/a-4-year-old-cancer-patient-had-an-unusual-wish-233/

A four-year-old girl who was diagnosed with cancer and spent a lot of time in a hospital room had an unusual wish. Abby wanted to “marry” Matt Hickling, who is a nurse at the hospital she is treated at. Apparently, Matt took very good care of her and now the girl dreams about her wedding day.

The Best Day of Abby’s Life

The little girl told her mother about the wish. Abby’s mother sent the nurse a message, informing him that her four-year-old daughter is ecstatic with Matt after his treating her, and that she wanted to marry him.

The nurse could not resist the wish and proposal of the little girl. In 24 hours, he and the other staff members at the Melodies Center Childhood Cancer and Blood Disorders organized a ceremony. He got down in his knees and put a huge smile on the sick girl’s face.

Abby Is Suffering from Leukemia

Abby Sayles is suffering from pre-b cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and she has been treated at the Albany Medical Center’s Melodies Center for Childhood Cancer.

Among children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), more than 95% attain remission, and approximately 80% of patients aged 1 to 18 years with newly diagnosed ALL are expected to survive the disease.

Abby’s Wedding Went Viral

The video of Abby‘s “wedding” shows the little girl, dressed in a white cute dress, marrying her nurse at the hospital she spends most of her time. The video has been viewed more than 2.4 million times and an impressive number of people had an opinion about this, leaving it in a comment.

There are people who approve the gesture made by Matt and the other stuff at the hospital, but there are also people who questioned this “wedding” and called the video disturbing. However, the point of everything was to make a little girl forget about her disease for a while.

Unfortunately, Abby’s cancer treatment is not over yet and she has more than one year to stay in the hospital. However, it seems that all the staff members at the Albany Medical Center’s Melodies Center for Childhood Cancer are doing their best to help her. Luckily, Abby is on her way to recovery very soon.

A 4-Year-Old Cancer Patient Had an Unusual Wish

A heartwarming tale for a Sunday night. - http://clapway.com/2015/07/12/even-with-terminal-cancer-love-gives-patient-the-best-day-of-his-life-235/

Having terminal cancer is not easy to deal with, even when the disease is treatable and the chances to become healthy again are quite high. Being told your cancer is in a terminal phase, is an information that steals even the last drop of happiness from people.

But a recent gesture and the overall attitude of a man who faces this problem, should be considered to be a lesson for many people, who aren’t able to enjoy the happiest moments of their lives even though they are healthy.

The Terminal Cancer Didn’t Stop Him from Enjoying His Wedding

Keith Borum married Nina Scott in a ceremony held at Good Samaritan Hospital in West Islip while the hospital staff assisted this fast-organized wedding.

Keith Borum is dealing with terminal diagnosis due to having non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. At the beginning, his chances of survival existed, but after battling the disease for 18 months, the doctors told him that his cancer would be terminal.

Despite the Pain and Discomfort Given by Terminal Cancer, Keith Showed Happiness

The man told the hospital staff that he had hoped to buy an engagement ring for Nina, who has been his girlfriend for three years. Since he wasn’t in the position to do anything alone, the hospital staff had to give him a hand. The nurses gathered the money needed in order to make Keith’s dream reality.

In addition to the wedding rings, there were also donated flowers, as well as a wedding cake.

The ceremony was held in his hospital room while everybody was dressed in medical gowns, in order to protect Keith from getting an infection.

Even though Keith was in a difficult situation since the disease made him so weak that he couldn’t even walk, during the wedding, he was able to feel happiness, enjoying every moment, even making a couple of jokes.

Facing Terminal Cancer, Keith Had “The Best Day of His Life”

When asked how he was feeling, the groom said that it was the best day of his life.

Even if Keith’s marriage won’t last as long as everyone would hope, his attitude was more than a loving gesture towards his girlfriend. His gesture can be an example for everyone, of how to enjoy all the happy moments in life.
