Khameyea Jennings finally got her night to just feel normal.
NFL defensive tackle for the Jacksonville Jaguars, Sen'Derrick Marks, made a heartfelt prom-posal to Jennings last week at the Wolfson Children's Hospital.
Jennings is suffering from liver cancer and wanted a night free of needles and chemotherapy.

Marks picked up Jennings in his Lamborghini at the hospital and gave her a beautiful tiara as a gift, the Florida Times-Union reports. The two then rode in style to her prom at the Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens.

Jennings was planning on going to prom with her sister, but Mark's invitation was too good to pass up.
“I know nothing about sports, but I like him,” she said.
After arriving at the zoo, Marks walked Jennings slowly to the entrance where she was given a wheelchair. Marks draped his jacket over her, and they proceeded into the event to roars of applause.
