Man With Terminal Cancer Spends Last 6 Months Making His Girlfriend's Dreams Come True

You have no control over your fate, but you do have a choice as to how you want to live. And this man chose well. Rather than waiting to die, he lived!

When Chris Price was given just six months to live, he decided to use that time to make his girlfriend's dreams come true.

In April 2013, the 26-year-old from Wales, who'd previously battled esophageal cancer, was diagnosed with cancer in his liver and lungs, BBC News reported. Price didn't waste any time before proposing to his girlfriend, Ceri.

Shortly after their August 2013 wedding, Price took Ceri and her four children to Disneyland Paris, where they had the "most magical time," according to WalesOnline. A few weeks later, they were off to New York City for a romantic getaway.

"If my love could have saved him, he would have lived forever," Ceri, 29, told the outlet. "We packed so much into the short time we had together."

Price just wanted to make his wife as happy as possible.

"His illness made him live completely in the moment and he taught me to do the same," Ceri told BBC News.

What a positive attitude in the face of heartbreak. Shouldn't we all live in the moment every day and make the best out of the time we have in this world?!

And what should we call the girl's attitude? Is it kindness? Is it bravery? Is it love?

She knew exactly that her boyfriend will die in 6 months, and still insisted on marrying him. He died in her arms last month, and his funeral was held in the same church where the couple wed, according to WalesOnline.

You have the choice today! Choose kindness and love. Choose peace and happiness. Choose to make everyone around you happy. After all, the size of one's heart is not measured by the span of one's life.
