Woman With Cancer Marries Herself In Order To Fulfill Her Dream (Photos)

A woman suffering from cancer has tied the knot to herself in a bid to fulfill her greatest wish – despite having no groom. Yang Chunyan, who has leukaemia, said she had always wanted a big white wedding, but she feared she might not live long enough to have her long-desired ceremony.
The 21-year-old Chinese woman expressed her wish in her sick bed to her brother, who arranged the emotional nuptials for her with help from medical staff and charity workers.
Ms Yang, who is undergoing chemotherapy, appeared at the special ceremony wearing a jet-black wig.
The ceremony was held in the Wulong People’s Hospital in Chongqing, south-west China, on January 20.
Ms Yang’s makeup was done by members from the local Zhenshanmei Volunteer Association. The charity organisation had also arranged a bridal gown and wedding cake for the young woman.
Ms Yang held a bouquet of flowers as she walked down a romantic pink carpet towards the stage, witnessed by doctors, nurses, volunteers and well-wishers. She was accompanied by the wedding host.

The happy bride then cut the wedding cake with charity workers.
