At first, I thought this was going to be some sick, twisted thing, but upon watching the video, I got really sad...

Their vows were to be "best friends forever", even though she has only a few weeks to live, and he is recovering.
Throughout most of the video, I had my attention on the little boy: he seems so sad, (probably because his friend is dying) and yet, I can't help but wonder how this will affect him later on in life. The parents seemed totally okay with the entire situation (and its their kids, so they can do whatever they want, I guess), but I wonder what I would do? What would anyone else do? Is it like having one more big party while you are still all together?
This, and that British woman who is letting the last weeks of her life be filmed...strange ways to go, I think. But then again, why not? When it's over, it's over...and any chance to do anything is gone.
Hmm...okay, back to Archaeology homework now.
