Debra and Wally, Chicago’s Second Wish Upon a Wedding Couple

Yesterday in Chicago was a very special day for Debbi and Wally. Debbi and Wally renewed their marriage vows and are the second Chicago Wish Upon a Wedding wish recipient. Debbi and Wally’s story is very inspiring and Debbi and Wally are not letting the stress of the chemotherapy get them down. They stay positive and happy and had a wonderful day celebrating with their family and friends.
