In this powerful episode of Prevailing Through Pain, host Karen Cherry Brown sits down with Cynthia Thornton, author of Medical Mistakes Overcome by Miracles.
Cynthia’s journey is one of unimaginable trials and unshakable faith:
Surviving the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995.
Enduring over 20 traumatic surgeries, including medical mistakes that could have cost her life.
Battling rejection, abandonment, obesity, and even a suicide attempt.
Finding healing through prayer, fasting, mentoring, and faith in God.
Cynthia’s story is not only about resilience—it’s about miracles, purpose, and the courage to rise again. Today, she is an author, mentor, and speaker inspiring others to trust God’s plan, no matter how broken life feels.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
What it was like to live through the Oklahoma City bombing.
How repeated medical errors shaped her belief that she was “broken”—and how God restored her.
The dark moments of childhood trauma, kidnapping, and rejection that tried to define her.
How she found strength, lost over 150 pounds, and reclaimed her life.
Why her book and faith-based message are helping others heal.
