The couple’s story has captured the hearts of many people in Saskatoon. From a wedding dress to a honeymoon in Niagara Falls, the entire wedding has been paid for by donations from local businesses.

Benitez said the support has overwhelmed the family.

“Last night when I got home I went on to my phone … I just started bawling man. All these good people that are helping Tanya out, all the support. I called them her angels, it’s amazing.”

Tanya has been given four to five years to live.

Benitez said he can’t thank the community and hospital staff enough for all they have done for Tanya and their family.
