This is the story about 9-year-old Jayla Cooper and 7-year-old Jose Griggs, who were married at Paradise Cove, on the shore of Lake Grapevine in  north Texas. Jayla, who has been battling leukemia for two years, has been given weeks to live.  The wedding was the young girl’s dying wish. The kids met at Children’s Medical Center in Dallas two years ago and quickly formed a strong bond.

“I love him, and it was just really important to me,” said Jayla. “I had fun dancing with my dad and with him and my granny.”

Her mother, Lisa Cooper shared her reflections in an interview: “I can’t explain how I feel right now. I’m happy, but at the at same time I am sad because I know my child is going to go to heaven with the Lord.”

Here is the video from the wedding, done by CNN channel:
