Choosing Joy and Surrender: Charlyn's Story with Stage 4 Breast Cancer (Her2+, Estr+)
In today’s episode of Faith Through Cancer, I’m joined by the amazing Charlyn Davids from South Africa, who shares her raw, beautiful, and deeply honest journey after being diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer (Her2+, Estr+)). Charlyn talks about how years of personal loss and heartache actually prepared her for this moment—and how, instead of fighting cancer, she’s learning to fully surrender to God’s love and care.
With a mix of honesty, laughter, and deep spiritual insight, Charlyn reminds us that we don’t have to have it all together to be held by God. Whether you’re walking through cancer, grief, or just a really hard season, this conversation will leave you feeling less alone and more seen by a God who truly knows what we need.
Bible Verses Shared:
📖 Psalm 112:6–8 – “The righteous will never be shaken; they will have no fear of bad news; their hearts are steadfast, trusting in the Lord.”
📖 Psalm 34:18 – “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”
📖 Isaiah 51:12 – “I, even I, am He who comforts you.”
📖 Romans 8:26 – “The Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.”
Charlyn’s Encouragement to Women With a Stage 4 Diagnosis:
“Run to Him. That’s all I can say. Don’t run away—there’s nothing for you there.”
“Be honest with how you feel. Grieve, rage, cry, worship—He can handle it all.”
“Don’t delay. Advocate for yourself if something feels off in your body.”
