Cynthia and Gordon Stevens' love story began in 2019, but their journey wasn't easy.
Gordon was diagnosed with esophageal cancer in 2022. During his life-threatening medical battle, he went through months of treatment, was placed in an induced coma, suffered two strokes, was told he wouldn't be able to walk and got cancer again.
Cynthia stayed by his side the whole time.
"She was the head cheerleader for me," said Gordon. "She was there every day that she could be for me, cheering me on, so that pretty well sealed the deal in my head that I wanted her in my life."
"I think that’s probably why I survived," he continued. "So I could be with her. I think that was pretty instrumental in my survival."
Two days after being released from the rehabilitation centre, he asked her to marry him.
