“Jess was in the final stages of her battle against cancer when I proposed to her on Christmas Day 2020 and we had no idea if we would actually be able to get married because of the lockdowns and Jess’s health issues. But then Jess went to the St Luke’s In Patient Centre and I cannot speak highly enough of what everybody there did for us. They helped us to create the wedding day that Jess wanted. The Chaplaincy team applied for a special licence for the ceremony to be held at St Luke’s and they arranged flowers and balloons that were donated by local companies, along with a special celebration cheesecake created by the St Luke’s catering team. I remember Jess saying that the one thing she wanted to do before she left this earth was to get married to me, to marry her soulmate, and it was a massive ray of light to her knowing it would happen. One of the things that most moved me was the way that, on the day, people came out to see Jess going to the ceremony. It was everything Jess could have wanted, a beautiful day and it wouldn’t have happened without St Luke’s.”
