Heartbroken Father Was Told He Was Too ILL To Attend Daughter’s Wedding, So She Surprised Him On Her Wedding Day

FOR most brides, having your father walk you down the aisle and sharing a dance with him are two of the most important moments of any wedding day.

Janae Hauger had always dreamed of dancing with her dad to their favourite song on her wedding day, and after he was hospitalised just weeks before her big day, she was determined to still make it happen.

An emotional video has captured the moment Janae surprised her father in hospital after he was too ill to attend her wedding so they could share a dance together.

With the big day on August 11 in Ridgewood, Ohio, the 23-year-old’s reverie was quickly thrown into doubt when her father, Steve Price, 59, suddenly began complaining of crippling stomach pains just weeks before.

Rushed into the hospital on July 16, Steve was soon diagnosed with a severe case of pancreatitis and he remained in the care of the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, for several weeks.

However, after suffering a number of setbacks, just three days before he was set to walk his daughter down the aisle, doctors told Steve he was too ill to attend.

Janae and her family ventured to the hospital chapel at Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center to surprise the father of the bride.

Wheeled into the hospital chapel on August 11, Stevie was bought to tears when faced with his daughter in her bridal gown, with Darius Rucker’s ‘It Won’t Be Like This For Long’ playing in the background.

Visibly shaking from emotion, Janae encourages Steve to his feet, where the pair gently sway along to the music, as they’ always planned to do.

Janae planned the moment meticulously with the help of hospital staff in order to surprise her father.

After the bridal party reluctantly returned to the reception, Janae then continued to FaceTime her father for the remainder of the wedding so he didn’t miss a thing.
