How's this story for a reminder that "We don't know we're alive".
How's this story for a reminder that "We don't know we're alive".
Her name is Katie Kirkpatrick, 21 yrs old. Next to her is her fiancé, Nick, 23. This picture was takenprior to their wedding January 11th, 2012. Katiehas terminal cancer and spends hours in
chemotherapy. Here Nick awaits while she finishes one of the sessions...
Even in pain and dealing with her organs shuttingdown, with the help of morphine, Katie took care
Even in pain and dealing with her organs shuttingdown, with the help of morphine, Katie took care
of every single part of the wedding planning. Herdress had to be adjusted several times due to Katie's constant weight loss.
An expected guest was her oxygen tank. Katie hadto use it during the ceremony and reception. Theother couple in this picture is Nick's parents, very emotional with the wedding and to see their son marrying the girl he fell in love when he was an adolescent.
Katie, in a wheel chair listening to her husband and friends singing to her.
In the middle of the party, Katie had to rest for a bitand catch her breath. The pain does not allow her to stand for long period of time.
Katie died 5 days after her wedding. To see a fragile woman dress as a bride with a beautiful smile makes you think... Happiness is always there within reach,no matter how long it lasts. Let’s enjoy life and don'tlive a complicated life. Life is too short. Work as if it was your first day. Forgive as soon aspossible. Love without boundaries. Laugh without control and never stop smiling
Please pray for those suffering from cancer.
