More scans showed tumors all over his skull, in the fluid of the lining of his brain, surrounding the pituitary gland. "We, every day, pray for a miracle together because we trust in God," said Sadie."We pray that Chase would stay on this earth longer so we can bring more people our story of love."Chase goes to Indian Creek High and Sadie to Mooresville High. In 2018, Mooresville invited Indian Creek for a dinner and ice cream social after their swim meet. Chase and Sadie saw each other there, but that's not when they fell in love.

Chase said he knew he loved Sadie from the moment he met her, the way she made him feel, the way his fears calmed when she was near him. "He pulled up Chase's X-ray and said, 'Do you see this lighter area?'" Kelli said."'There is a tumor on his femur.'""After that, it went like wildfire," said Kelli. In 2016 came his second battle, a lump on Chase's left leg in the same spot as his first. It was Ewing's sarcoma again. In April of last year, he faced another round – a tumor the size of his heart on his lower lung.

As he started to spill his heart out to her, Sadie interrupted him."I know exactly what you're going to say," she told him."I wanted to tell you the same thing tonight."The Smiths invited the Mills over for dinner and as the two families sat in a room, Chase laid it all out. Before the ceremony, they stood holding hands around a corner so they couldn't see one another. They prayed and read the letters they had written to one another.
