Touching moment at a palliative care unit in Lower Austria: A man with cancer and his long-time partner exchanged vows.

Reinhard T. and Carmen A. have been a couple for 15 years and have now decided to make their marriage vows, reported the Lower Austrian State Health Agency on Thursday via press release.

"It is very important to us to support our patients not only medically but also personally - this includes fulfilling heartfelt wishes," said Senior Physician Elisabeth Mock from the Amstetten State Hospital. To provide the couple with a dignified and festive ceremony, there was not only a registrar at the palliative care unit on that day, but also a wedding cake, flowers, and champagne.
