Sanibel wedding is a gift of a lifetime for Indiana couple dealing with the issue of end of life
Fifty-year-old Abby Killion walked down the aisle at sunset in the same dress she wore just shy of 20 years ago at her original wedding.
But this time, the aisle was a stretch of sand at Sundial Beach Resort & Spa on Sanibel Island, and she was accompanied by her 16-year-old daughter Addison as maid of honor and her 13-year-old son Aiden as best man.
There was an unwelcome guest as well — her illness; Killion has been diagnosed with terminal brain cancer.
Dream Foundation, a nonprofit that grants dreams to adults facing a terminal diagnosis, flew the Killions from their home in Indiana to Sanibel Island for the June 16 ceremony — Abby’s final wish. The family was too scared to wait for their real 20th anniversary later this year.
