Hospital Team Goes Above And Beyond To Get Sick Mom To Daughter's Wedding

So nurses rearranged their shifts in order to take the mother of the bride to the venue in an ambulance and then accompany her to the ceremony. They even helped her do her makeup, hair and nails for the occasion, according to Parent Dish. The site reports that it took 137 medics to ensure Wilkins made it to her daughter's Big Day.

“I didn’t know mum was going to be there until the last minute," her daughter, Elizabeth Bolton, told the Daily Echo. "When I’d walked down the aisle, I just ran over and gave her a big hug, it was really emotional.”

Wikins added, “It was way beyond their jobs and I wouldn’t have made it to the wedding without them.”
