BUILDING STRONG HOMES podcast
HOST: CAROL ROPER
You wouldn’t expect a bout with breast cancer and a heart transplant would lead to a better marriage, but that’s exactly what happened for Anthony and Mary Mabry. In 2018, before Mary’s breast cancer diagnosis, their marriage was difficult. But Anthony was there for Mary through six rounds of chemo, losing her hair, a double mastectomy, and 20 rounds of radiation. Finally, she was cancer-free, and they were ready to move on with their lives. But their marriage still wasn’t great. Then the tables were turned in 2020 when Anthony discovered he’d been having silent heart attacks for over six months, and he was put on the transplant list. Something neither of them had seen coming, even though a heart attack had taken one of Anthony’s brothers a few years earlier. After 48 days in a hospital two hours away from home, Anthony was finally sent home with an electric device to keep his heart working. However, the device was only supposed to work for a year. But God showed up over and over again in their story as He provided one miracle after another as they navigated the difficult journey, waiting 2-1/2 years before finally receiving a heart and kidney transplant.
Now, they say their health struggles helped to build their faith and made their marriage so much stronger than it was before both of their health crisis, and they give God all of the glory. Listen to how God provided for and healed not only their bodies but also their marriage.
