Beautiful Lesson

look at this picture carefully...-BEAUTIFUL LESSON-

p/s~do u have time to accompany me like this?~

The girl in the picture is Katie Kirkpatrick, she is 21 . Next to her, her fiancé, Nick, 23.
The picture was taken shortly before their wedding ceremony, held on January 11, 2005 in the US .
Katie has terminal cancer and spend hours a day receiving medication.
In the picture, Nick is waiting for her on one of the many sessions of chemo to end.




p/s~u still want me when i look like this???~

In spite of all the pain, organ failures, and morphine shots, Katie is going along with her wedding and took care
of every detail. The dress had to be adjusted a few times due to her constant weight loss



An unusual accessory at the party was the oxygen tube that Katie used throughout the ceremony and reception as well.
The other couple in the picture are Nick's parents. Excited to see their son marrying his high school sweetheart.

At the reception, katie had to take a few rests. The pain did not allow her to stand for long periods

p/s~will u love me until the end of my day?~

Katie died five days after her wedding day. Watching a woman so ill and weak getting married and with a smile on her face makes us think..... Happiness is reachable, no matter how long it lasts .

We should stop making our lives complicated.

Make the best out of it!


Life is short


Break the rules


forgive quickly


love truly


laugh constantly


And never stop smiling


no matter how strange life is


Life is not always the party we expected to be


but as long as we are here, we should smile and be

grateful.
