This cancer patient married the love of his life in the most touching ceremony you’ll ever see

accreditation
Meet Rowden Pancoga. According to Buzzfeed and YouTube, Pancoga and his girlfriend, Liezl actually planned on getting married later this year.

But, as the YouTube description states,  Rowden was unfortunately diagnosed with stage four liver cancer in May.

With very little time to spare, a wedding was quickly planned. Unfortunately, by this time Pancoga was too ill to leave hospital.

With only 12 hours, and considering the fact that his only wish was to marry Liezl before he died, plans were quickly made to prepare the hospital for a wedding ceremony.

Unable to get married in a church, the family decided to bring the church to him. What followed was an incredibly moving ceremony.

Rowden died just under 10 hours later.

Watch the video below. We dare you not to be moved by this.
