True Love Never Dies
Katie Kirkpatrick, 21, held off cancer to celebrate the
happiest day of her life. Katie had chased cancer, once
only to have it return-to clog her lungs and grab hold of her
heart. Breathing was difficult now, she had to use oxygen.\
The pain in her back was so intense it broke through the
morphine that was supposed to act as a shield.
Her organs were shutting down but it would not stop her
from marrying Nick Godwin, 23, who was in love with Katie
since 11th grade.Nick Godwin, 23, left, takes a moment of

gown
Five days later, Katie died. She did not let sickness stop her
from living, take away the hope or faith that made her
believe she had a future. She had a lovely wedding and she
had love and she gave love and love doesn’ t die. And that
is how Katie beat cancer.
