Houston Rock Couple Scoots Their Way to Wedding Bliss

Wish Upon a Wedding in Houston, Texas to Grant Second Wedding Wish November 20, 2011
 
June 29, 2011 - PRLog -- HOUSTON, TEXAS – Who thought that scooters, art galleries and punk music could bring people together? That’s the story of Alexis and Christian, Wish Upon a Wedding Houston’s second Wedding Wish recipients. The two met at an art gallery and with a common love of scooters their fate was sealed. Alexis became Christian’s everything when she was there to care for him after his wreck on his scooter and Christian returned the favor in 2007 when Alexis was diagnosed with Mesothelioma. Doctors informed Alexis that the progress of her diagnoses is very abnormal yet Christian has stood by her side and lifted her spirits every day.

Mesothelioma is a rare form of cancer that develops from the protective lining that covers many of the body’s internal organs, the mesothelium. Alexis has an unusual type of the cancer that is attacking the lining of her diaphragm and was only discovered during her gallbladder surgery.

Even with the diagnoses and outcome set before them Alexis says, “He [Christian] believes in the goodness of everybody. He helps me see things in a more positive light. He balances me out quite a bit. His smile still changes everything and he believes in miracles. That really was a big part of how I got through what I had to go through.”

Their complete story may be read on the Wish Upon a Wedding blog at http://wishuponawedding.org/2011/06/10/alexis-and-christi...
