On October 20, 2015, Sarah was given new lungs. "This was the exact moment I realized I was breathing with new lungs and all the emotional and physical struggles were worth it!" she wrote on Instagram.
Caleigh and her fiancé Bryan were going to plan an engagement part on October 28, 2017. But after she met with her transplant team and learned they had denied her a life-saving lung transplant, they changed their minds.
"Neither of us wanted to waste a day alive not being all in with one another," Caleigh told KTVU.
In just six days, the couple planned their dream wedding with help from family, friends, and local businesses.
There is also a GoFundMe to help pay for their Hawaiin honeymoon.
Part of the funds raised is also going to her expensive medical bills.
Through every up and down, her family has been there for her and has vowed to be there for her until the end.
The couple pulled off the wedding and made it a day to remember forever.
“I will never stop fighting to stay alive because I want to continue to share memories with you,” the bride said in her vows.
Caleigh doesn't know how long she'll live now that she was denied another transplant but she plans on making the most out of every day.
“I fell in love with Caleigh because she appreciates everything about life more than anyone and crappy things happen to her every day,” Bryan told the Columbus Dispatch. “If we exhaust all options, we will be happy we tried but will focus on the quality of life with the time we have left.”
Caleigh has spent the last nine years in and out of the hospital. But her wedding day gave her a few hours to be completely filled with joy.
Caleigh has proven she is a fighter and is an inspiration to all.
