D'aww, it's like something out of a movie

Man who stole to pay for his terminally ill girlfriend’s medical expenses marries her while in prison

She, 37-years-old, late stages of cancer. He, 42-years-old, in order to get money for her treatments, stole and was sent to jail, his sentence 4 years. As a woman, her wish is to wear a wedding dress just once in her life. As a man, for this woman, he has given everything, and in order to realise her wish he took her hand and walked her down the aisle. On the 12th November 2010 in Henan Province Jiaonan Prison Meizi had a beaming smile on her face, but was staggering as she walked, and the wedding ceremony originally planned to be half an hour only lasted for 10 or so minutes before being hastily ended because she just couldn’t carry on. Nonetheless, this fairy tale-like wedding moved the few hundred guests present to tears.

That's really kinda beautiful in a way.

Just wanted to say that before derailing the thread.
In a country with proper healthcare, they might of grown old together, without a plate of glass in the middle of them.

That was exactly like in a movie! One should write one, it could be like The Notebook v.2

I bet she had lung cancer. Thanks, nicotine.

He also got 20 years for stealing... GG, China.

4 years, or so the article says? But yeah, that's excessive, but it's China, to be expected.
