Son and Mother in Hospice Share a Beautiful Dance at His Wedding

A son and his mother in hospice shared a beautiful, moving dance at his wedding. This is likely one of the sweetest, heartwarming, yet heartbreaking videos you’ll ever see. Have the tissues nearby while you check out this short but powerful story.

Weddings and everything about the big day are always emotional occasions. It’s the literal formation of a family, two people who vow to remain together regardless of what life may throw their way. Many people often shed a tear or two or three. How could you not at least get a little teary-eyed?

Of course, the wedding ceremony is only part of the big day. The reception that typically follows provides many other opportunities for people to bring out the tissues. Usually, at a reception, the moments most likely to bring those in attendance to tears are the father-daughter and the mother-son dance.

A clip posted on YouTube captured a mother-son dance that will likely bring everyone to tears. As explained in the video, the groom’s mother had been undergoing a battle with cancer, and they weren’t even sure that she would make it to the ceremony.

“I was just happy that I was there, and I was able to dance with him,” Olivia Armaro, the groom’s mother, said. “That was really my main concern.”

After successfully undergoing treatment for breast cancer, doctors discovered that she had masses in her lungs and cancer in her brain. While undergoing treatment for the cancer in her lungs and brain, Olivia was informed that she had only months to live.

Despite that heartbreaking news, Olivia was determined to attend her son’s wedding and dance with him. Even though many in the family had concerns about whether she would make it to the wedding date, Olivia was in attendance.

“Life is short,” Olivia said. “Be good to people; they’ll be good to you.”

Revelation 21:4 “And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.”
