news.aol.com — Jayla Cooper's dying wish came true as she married her friend in a dream wedding ...just 9 years old, likely has only weeks to live after having battled leukemia for the last two years...In the symbolic ceremony, put together in less than a week, Jayla wore a white dress and walked down the aisle on her father's arm.

"What I see is that the boy she is marrying is going to be a "symbolic" widow at the age of 9. I understand that this is a "heart-string" story, but isn't this a lot of pressure to put on a little kid."I'm not sure where the "added" pressure comes from; Jose is going to lose his best friend and yes that is going to be hell for him but I see this from a different angle. In my mind at least he gets to know that he helped give her a wonderful memory and carry out her last wishes. I lost a close friend when I was a young child and I still regret every day not being able to help her carry out a dream she never got to fulfill. If i had that opportunity I know it wouldn't cancel out all the grief but I know it would personally give me some solace in knowing I gave her a special memory before she was gone and maybe in 20 years Jose will be proud that he did it.Beyond that, we played "getting married" all the time on the playground in elementary school so I guess we were all mocking the holy institution of marriage.

I just lost my aunt to cancer about three weeks ago. It was one of the most painful things that i have ever seen. you just dont know how terrible cancer is till you see it first hand. I'm happy that this girl was able to live out her dream. I really do wish and hope for the best to both their families.

A wedding would definitely not be my last dying wish.
