Terminally Ill Brother Walks Sister Down The Aisle

A heartbroken family were able to make their terminally ill son's final wish come true, as they moved his sister's wedding to his hospital so that he could walk her down the aisle. There was not a dry eye in the house as Franklin Kaunang, 24, walked arm in arm with his sister, Angela, 30, as she made her way to the alter at Franklin's Philadelphia hospital. Franklin – a flight engineer in the Air Force – had always dreamed of watching his sister get married, and just a week after he had mustered the strength to play such a pivotal role in her big day, he passed away in his hospital bed.
