She Saw Jesus Appear After Receiving A Terminal Cancer Diagnosis

Joyce Robinson Ceraolo shared her miracle story with me via a Facebook comment on March 17th, 2025. During a dark moment, as she contemplated the cancer diagnosis, which the doctor said would give her only 2 months to live, she saw Jesus appear with a hopeful message.

In 2015, I was diagnosed with Stage 4 metastatic breast cancer (MBC) – it had spread to my left breast, lungs, lymph nodes under my arm and chest, bones, sinuses, and brain. The cancer had even eaten part of my skull. It was HER2, estrogen, and progesterone-positive breast cancer. My primary doctor told me I had about two months to live.

My husband and I sat on the bed that first night after my diagnosis, talking and crying. He had to leave to go back to work, and I continued to cry and pray for peace. Suddenly, I was sitting alone on my bed, everything was dark, and then I saw a bright light over my left shoulder. I turned and saw Jesus sitting on a grey rock. The rock was tall on His right side, and He had His left arm outstretched with His hand cupped over the head of a glowing white lamb. He spoke, and I felt His voice flow through my body.

He said,
“Rest… I’m watching over you.”

His words flowed through me, and a peace like nothing I’ve ever experienced came over me. I lay back and fell sound asleep. His peace has continued with me over the last 10 years.

I am now 75 and have severe rheumatoid arthritis. I had colon surgery (48 staples) twice before my cancer diagnosis. I also had emergency gallbladder surgery, and the doctor said my gallbladder had ruptured and was lying in a pool of gangrene. He told me, “Ms. Ceraolo, you’ve been through so much that I’m going to try to do this laparoscopically,” and he did.

In the past 5 years, I’ve lost six brothers and sisters, as well as my husband. I’ve had radiation on 14 brain tumors that metastasized to my brain. Through it all, He has been with me.

What this means to you is that there is hope. I have spoken to many women who are cancer-free after 15 to 20 years. Lean on God and believe He will heal you. I’m sending prayers and the comfort that only He can give.

Though I am physically limited, I made a promise to God that at every opportunity, I would share my miracle and tell everyone just how great He is! I will carry His peace with me forever.
