(ANSA) - ROME, JUL 5 - A man dying after a heart attack got
marries in an Italian intensive care unit but a heart arrived to
save him while the ceremony was taking place.

Molinette Hospital granted his wish, with a priest performing
the ceremony while he was on life support in the ICU, and his
bride carrying a bouquet made from blood test tube caps.
But at the last minute the doctors heard that there was a
possibility of a heart transplant, which they duly performed
later that night. (ANSA).
