Father dies four days after dream wedding
Father dies four days after his dream wedding Go fund me/ Kirsty Williamson
A UK man has passed away only four days after he got married to the love of his life, in a 'dream wedding ceremony.'
On 15 February, Lee Williamson, 28, was diagnosed with liver failure and was told he only had weeks to live, as doctors advised him it was too late to have any treatment.
Williamson's only dying wish was to marry his partner of two years, Kirsty Maddison, 32, which he fulfilled on March 8. He passed away just four days later.

The couple, who have one child, held the ceremony in Williamson's home, with family and friends chipping in money to make it a day to remember.
“It really was a dream come true for us to be married,” Maddison explains on a charity page she set up in her late husband’s memory.
The grieving wife is now facing the horrible situation of having to pay for his funeral after spending their savings on the wedding.
"I just want to lay my husband to rest," she writes.
Paying tribute to her late husband, Maddison describes him as “the most caring and kindest person you would ever meet.”
