Weddings are usually bound to make us cry, but you’ll need a full box of Kleenex just for this one photo. A touching photo of newlyweds and their young son is going viral and bringing thousands of tears to the Internet.
Celia and Geff Kinzel married a few weeks ago in the chapel of Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Ohio. Their 2 year-old son, Logan, is currently a patient there being treated for brain cancer after being diagnosed in February 2016. Surrounded by Logan, their other 4 year-old son Rowan, and about 20 loved ones, the Kinzels tied the knot in a very happy ceremony. But this photo captured a truly touching moment:
Oh sorry, there’s something in my eye…like a twig or an entire tree trunk…
In the photo, the Kinzels were taking Logan back to his hospital room. Celia’s mother, Megan Dempsey, snapped the photo on the way after following them down the hallway. “It was just a lucky snap of a picture,” Dempsey explained to ABC News. “We were happy that Logan was able to come down. It was a nice day for Celia and Geff and a nice break from what’s really been a difficult time.”
Despite the circumstances, the family was fortunate enough to celebrate the wedding together as a whole. “There wasn’t anything sad about it,” Celia explained. “We were worried that Logan would get sick during the ceremony. But it was the first day that he was full of energy, really happy, really talkative. He was ready to see people and be there.”
WE JUST WANT THEM TO BE HAPPY, OKAY?!
Although Logan’s undergoing chemotherapy treatments, he hasn’t let it crush his spirit. His mother describes him as a total goofball. “He loves to give kisses,” she said. “When he laughs, he’ll throw his head back and it’s so cute!”
We hope many more days of joy for the Kinzels! They certainly deserve it, especially after what they have been going through for months.
