What an emotional wedding! Our dear friend Nancy had met Jose, the man of her dreams. Their wedding day was set for Saturday, September 13th, however the night before their wedding day, Jose fell ill and had to be hospitalized. The morning of the wedding, we got the call that the wedding was cancelled. As the day progressed, we kept hoping that we would get the call that everything was okay and that the wedding was still on, however the time came and went. We found out that Jose's health had declined and the situation had become quite grave. The doctors performed emergency surgery to stop internal bleeding however his hemoglobin dipped to life threatening levels. They didn't know if Jose was going to survive. Every time the phone rang, we jumped, thinking the worst. We went to bed not knowing what the next morning would bring. We were thrilled in ours hearts when we found out that Jose & Nancy got married in the hospital by his bedside at about 10 minutes to midnight. As the time progressed in the following months, the news changed daily. There were days where he was doing much better and then as quick as a blink, it would change again. All that being said, you can imagine what an emotional day it was to see my dear friend get her day. She looked absolutely beautiful as she stared up into her husband's eyes while they danced their first dance. Jose still has some hurdles to overcome, but he's got a woman by his side that won't give up. She is a true example of what the meaning of true love is really about....through better or worse....
