I know I shouldn't be blogging right now, with time so tight from uni schedules and all. But I stumbled upon this photo story on the internet and thought this was something that needed to be shared, archived, whatever.
I feel that materialism is eating away at the petty souls of humanity today, what with the existence of third world countries. We forget to reflect upon the good stuff in life :)
Read Katie Kirkpatrick Godwin's touching story...
Katie Kirkpatrick and her fiance, Nick, rest prior to their wedding. Katie has terminal cancer and spends hours in chemotherapy. Here Nick waits while she finishes one of the sessions.
Even in pain and dealing with her organs shutting down, with the help of morphine, Katie took care of every single wedding plan. Her dress had to be adjusted several times due to her constant weight loss.
An expected guest was her oxygen tank. Katie had to use it during the ceremony and reception. Katie's parents look on.

In the middle of the party Katie had to rest for a bit and catch her breath. The pain doesn't allow her to stand for long periods of time.
Katie passed away just five days after her wedding at the McLaren Regional Medical Center in Flint, Michigan
