FATHER WILL NOT WALK HIS DAUGHTER DOWN THE AISLE – PLANS SOMETHING EXTRA SPECIAL FOR HER
TORI MCNABB 11 HOURS AGO
Most fathers look forward to the day when they can walk their daughter down the aisle on her wedding day. Mark Williams, however, won’t be walking his daughter down the aisle — and the reason why is truly touching.

On Christmas Eve in 2009, Mark and his wife Michelle received horrible news that their 4-year-old daughter, Chloe, had cancer.

“I remember going to the family’s room on the 24th of December to have to tell them their daughter had a brain tumor,” said Dr. Alex Levy, a childhood cancer specialist at the Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children in Orlando, Fla.

Williams asked Levy if he would ever get the chance to walk his daughter down the aisle.

In a 2012 video from the hospital, which recently resurfaced, the heartwarming reason for Williams’ decision is explained.

Watch the touching video below.

Dang Bahmer. I think there's a ghost in my house frying jalapeños. My eyes sure are watering.

We had a tear jerker in our family on Oct. 20th ourselves.
As prolly you, and many here know, my daughter went through a bout with cancer a while back. Her then boyfriend stuck by her, supported, and cared for, and about her through the entire ordeal. It was brutal on her, but he was always there for her. They were married on Oct 20th.
Here's the kicker.

He's a building/roofing contractor, and on Thursday, 2 days before the wedding, a ladder collapsed out from under him. He fell 15 feet, and got his feet tangled up in the ladder on the way down, breaking both of them badly. One very badly. At the ER, they set one as best they could, and put both in hard casts until he could get with an orthopedic surgeon, and put him in a wheelchair.

Well, some plans had to be rearranged, but he swore that he was gonna stand up to marry my daughter, and by golly, he did it! He stood on his shattered feet through the ceremony, and once they were pronounced man, and wife, he sat back down in his wheelchair.

There wasn't a dry eye in the house.

As long as God is in His heavens and we can observe His care and love for us as in this video, your faith will never be destroyed even in the darkest hours.
