Reimundo Tello, 29, has been hospitalized for some time in the Critical Patient Unit at the Provincial Hospital of Ovalle, Chile, with a guarded prognosis.

Cristián Núñez, 27, has been his partner for a decade. And amid IV drips, monitors, and nursing shifts, they decided that would be the place to get married.

They asked the medical team, and the hospital said yes. The Civil Registry came to the room. There was cake, decorations, and even the Food Department joined in to make everything feel like a real wedding, not paperwork in the hallways.

All of this while the Limarí region was facing a climate emergency that had damaged the hospital itself days earlier.

They did not wait for everything to be okay. They understood that 10 years of love do not need a perfect place to be celebrated, only the willingness to say yes. 🏥💍
