Paralyzed bride to marry one year after accident

You may recall we told you a little about dance instructor Rachelle Friedman last summer who was set to be married but her plans changed when injured at her bachelorette party.

The dance party hasn't ended for Rachelle. She is ready to roll down the aisle on Friday.

 The dance instructor made news last May when during the poolside horseplay, she was pushed in the shallow end of the pool by one of her bridesmaids. She told ABC News that she knew immediately something was wrong. The 25-year-old said, " I instantly just stopped moving." She told her friends it wasn't a joke and to call 9-1-1.

The bride-to-be was paralyzed from the waist down with the wedding one month away. The two postponed the wedding, but their commitment to each other remained strong. The two will finally exchange vows and honeymoon in Fiji.

Read the rest.

    wanda: I think it is God's blessing to the both of them. I have been with Jeff for 6 yrs and I know that he was God's gift to me. Rachelle and Chris will be happy and blessed in their marriage to one another. Enjoy life's ride. It does not end, it only get's better. God bless you guys. :-)
