4-Year-Old Girl Has A Husband 25 Years Older Than Her… The Reason Why? I’m In Tears!

Every story has something unique and teaches us life changing lessons, but there are some which are so special that they touch us to the core and stay with us for the rest of our lives. When we first hear of a story like the one below, we get stunned and start calculating the possibilities of it being true. We wonder how a 29-year-old can be married to a 4-year-old, but the truth is far beyond our imagination.

On the day of marriage, they exchanged candy rings and cut a cake, and when they walked down the aisle all hummed wedding tunes.

Matt said, “Once you build a relationship with them, they can go farther along.”
We feel Matt is doing a great job and he is one of the major factors in Abby’s recovery. If you think on the same line, share this story and help nurses to understand the patients better.
