(PCM) The prom can be one of the most memorable occasions for any high school student, as it is one of those memories that you carry with you for the rest of your life.
A high school in Arkansas is making headlines after a video and story about a very special “promposal” has gone viral, warming hearts across the nation.
A 19-year old student named Autumn Pollard, who is diagnosed with Noonan syndrome, which is a rare genetic disorder that affects areas of her body such as her height and her heart, was recently asked to attend the high school prom with star football player Cope Robinson.
Due to her disorder, Pollard is only 4 feet tall and ways just 57 pounds. In the very special promposal video, Pollard was on the gym floor dancing with the school mascot during a recent pep rally, when suddenly students holding cardboard signs spelled out “PROM ?” just before Robinson came out from behind them with a bouquet of flowers to ask Pollard to be his date.
Pollard says that this is a dream come true as this will be her first prom and Robinson said that he is just thrilled that he was able to do something to make someone else so happy.
