Diagnosed with terminal cancer in July this year, Ng Yuet Hay had only one wish — to attend her son’s wedding.

Her son, Chia Fu Yong, initially planned to hold his wedding next year, but had to expedite the date when his mother was diagnosed with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer.

“I was afraid she wouldn’t be able to see me wed. It’s very hard to say how long she has left,” the 35-year-old told The Straits Times.

The family also had a scare two weeks before the Oct 10 ceremony, when Ng’s condition started to deteriorate.

However, she managed to pull through and had her wish fulfilled with the help of Ambulance Wish Singapore.

The non-profit organisation, which grants the last wishes of terminally ill patients, took the bedridden 71-year-old to Chia’s solemnisation ceremony at Marina One in an ambulance.
