A video gone viral shows the beauty between a dying father and his loving daughter.

David Wilson, from Victorville California, had been battling a rare form of cancer and was in his last days when his daughter, Lisa Wilson, was to get married. Lisa had a special dream wedding planned but changed her wedding plans so as to make sure she would be able to get married with her father present. As David was terminally ill, Lisa and her husband decided to get married at Irvine hospital.

After being pronounced man and wife, the newly Dr. Pantoja Lisa asked her father to dance her first dance with her. Being too sick to even stand up, David let her know that since he could not get up and would not be able to fulfill her wish. However, Lisa told him he didn't need to stand up and that they could just dance with their hands.

As Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You" played in the background Lisa and David shared their beautiful and touching dance in an incredibly emotional moment. The bride went side to side dancing with his hands and taking moments to kiss her father.

David posted the video to his Facebook a couple days later and titled it "The Best Gift A Daughter Could Give." Mr. Wilson passed away soon after but left a beautiful memory for his daughter to cherish forever.
