Christin explained,"My mom's old wedding ring had just been too small for some time so she knew she would get another one sooner or later, yet she didn't know when."
After her mom had surgery, she went with her dad to pick up her new ring. She said,"It was so beautiful and even more special because it includes the diamonds from her original wedding ring."
Jim, who always tries to keep his wife laughing and happy, proposed to Lora for the second time to demonstrate he would dependably remain adjacent to her for better or for worse, in sickness and in health.

Lora says she got a normal mammogram in January and that is when specialists found a tumor. On February 11, she got the call that it was indeed breast cancer —yet specialists guaranteed her they got it early and her anticipation looked good. The couple’s oldest daughter, Anna, 22, was unable to be there for ceremony but Lora says support from both of her children has helped her get through her surgeries and recovery process.
Lora says,"To have something so beautiful happen to me, well it was truly amazing, I had a good cry of release and love and it was a pretty special day for me. I’m reminded me of the great love we have."
