How Far God Has Brought Me: Alicia's Story of Discovering Breast Cancer During Pregnancy

In this episode of Faith Through Cancer, I’m joined by Alicia Robinson, a homeschooling mom from central Illinois who shares her remarkable story of being diagnosed with stage IV bilateral breast cancer while pregnant with her third child.  Alicia opens up about discovering lumps during pregnancy, navigating an early delivery and NICU stay, and learning to advocate for herself by seeking a second medical opinion that ultimately changed the course of her treatment. She reflects honestly on fear, motherhood, and learning to live fully in the present rather than being consumed by “what ifs.” Throughout her story, Alicia points listeners back to God’s faithfulness, the power of prayer, and the importance of speaking truth and hope over yourself, even on the hardest days. This conversation will especially encourage anyone facing a difficult diagnosis, walking through cancer while parenting, or learning how to trust God when healing feels slow and uncertain. Alicia’s story is a beautiful reminder to look for how far God has already brought you, even when you’re still waiting for the next miracle.
