A Jacksonville couple married Thursday at Mayo Clinic after running into issues getting their marriage license.
Tying the knot Mike Shaw was diagnosed with stage 4 Myxoid liposarcoma, a rare cancer, which has spread to his lungs and spine.
He is currently being treated at Mayo Clinic and can’t leave the hospital due to his health.
Shaw and his fiancée said ran into an issue with getting the marriage license because both parties are required to apply in person at the Duval County Courthouse at the same time to get a marriage license. Shaw’s fiancée said he’s too sick to leave the hospital.
The Duval county clerk of courts waved the 3-day waiting period for a marriage license for the couple.
