113. Doctors Said She Was Dying. God Said Get Up. A Stage 4 Colon Cancer Healing Story for Anyone Losing Hope with LaVonne Chastain and Gaylynn Kapri

Have you ever been told there was no hope? Maybe it was a diagnosis. Maybe it was a failed semen analysis after vasectomy reversal. Maybe it was low motility, zero sperm, poor morphology, or a doctor telling you IVF was your only realistic option. In this episode, I’m joined by cousins LaVonne Chastain and Gaylynn Kapri for a story that speaks to anyone walking through fear, grief, uncertainty, or a body that feels like it has betrayed them. Gaylynn is a stage-four colon cancer survivor who was once told she was dying. LaVonne is the author of Get Up: The Story of One Woman’s Journey and the God Who Wouldn’t Let Go, the book based on Gaylynn’s life, loss, healing journey, and testimony. Gaylynn’s story is a powerful reminder that your diagnosis, your semen analysis, your labs, or your doctor’s opinion do not get to become your identity. Together, we talk about stage-four colon cancer, radical remission, faith over fear, food as medicine, fasting, trauma, grief, natural healing, and why caring for the body as God’s temple matters when you are believing for healing, restoration, and new life. If you or your husband have been discouraged by post-reversal numbers, told to move straight to IUI or IVF, or left wondering whether healing is still possible, this conversation will remind you to pause, pray, ask better questions, and remember that God is still in the business of restoration. LaVonne and Gaylynn also share the story behind Get Up, the role faith played in Gaylynn’s healing, and why no season of suffering is wasted in God’s hands.
