the bride was beautiful




This photo essay is heartbreaking but beautiful:
"Katie Kirkpatrick, 21, held off cancer to celebrate the happiest
day of her life. Breathing was difficult now; she had to use oxygen.
The pain in her back was so intense it broke through the morphine.
Her organs were shutting down but it would not stop her from
marrying Nick Godwin, 23, who had been in love with Katie
since 11th grade. Five days later, Katie died."

So sad. Makes you cherish your loved ones and even your health that much more.
