Beautiful Lesson !!!!!!!!



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.



 

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.




Katie, in her wheelchair with the oxygen tube ,
listening to a song from her husband and friends




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




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.


Life is short


Break the rules


forgive quickly


kiss passionately, 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....

This is truly a lovely and inspirational example of two persons, but lesson is about the humanity, how worst the condition of a person is physically, do not turn the face, but encourage yourself to support him/her in any situation. Think if you were in his/her place...
