When Patricia and Christopher Armstrong learned their baby only had a few weeks to live they decided to move their wedding forward, marrying in a hospice so he could be part of the ceremony.
Little Conner Armstrong was disgnosed with Edwards syndrome in the womb, a genetic condition where an extra chromosome is present. The syndrome causes extreme phsyical effects and meant Conner was born with three holes in his heart.
90 per cent of babies born with Edwards syndrome don't make it past birth, but doctors told the Armstrongs they would at least have a few weeks with Conner. So they agreed to bring the date of their pending wedding forward. On March 11 the pair married with Conner in their arms in the hospice where he was being cared for.
