A 17-year-old with terminal cancer believed his only regret in life would be not marrying his long-term girlfriend. His touching story went viral, and with the money they raised through donations, the young couple had a fairytale wedding. He then passed away, only months after tying the knot.

Brady Hunker was only 15 when he was first diagnosed with a rare type of bone cancer called Ewing sarcoma. Despite the hard times he was about to face, his girlfriend, Mollie Landman, remained by his side. “She was always there to just give me a hug or just sit next to me,” he recalled, per WLWT.
