A story of a newly-married husband being diagnosed with advanced colon cancer at age 30

“In May 2004, Amanda Costanzo stood in front of friends and family members and vowed to love Todd McGovern for better and for worse, in sickness and in health.

She just didn’t think those promises would be tested so soon. Six weeks after their wedding, Todd was diagnosed with advanced colon cancer and given six months to live. He was 30 years old.

‘I couldn’t believe that we had just been married in a church in May and in six months I would be planning his funeral in the same church,’ Amanda, 29, said.”
