New Orleans Saints linebacker Dermario Davis and his wife, Tamela, recently opened up about how their faith was tested after their daughter was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer in her left eye.
Their daughter, Carly-Faith Davis, was diagnosed with retinoblastoma , a rare form of cancer in the back of the eye that typically affects children. In May 2020, her parents first noticed a glint in her left eye but didn’t think much of it. The couple later changed their minds and sought medical attention for their daughter.
“When I really heard the doctors tell us that it was cancer and what our journey was going to look like, from that moment on, there was just this weakening, and it went from the top of head to the bottom of my feet and almost as if I was going to pass out,” Tamela told CBN News in a video interview.
“We got the same shocking news that many people get, and we had the same emotions that many people have – anger, confusion, sadness,” Demario added.
Following her diagnosis, Carly-Faith’s had to have her left eye surgically removed to stop the spread of the cancer. At the time, the Davises prayed that the operation would go well and that the Lord would save their daughter’s eye.
“I’m a person who typically don’t handle things very well, especially when it comes to our children,” Tamela shared. “I was trusting and relying on God one hundred percent, and He just really comforted me and gave me peace to really be able to embrace what was happening.”
As for Demario, he recalled God reminding him of a particular Bible passage that stresses the necessity of having faith, CBN News reports .

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
