There has been no proof that evolution actually exists. The big proof that is totally missing is transitional fossils. These are imperative to prove evolution. They have not been found, 150 years after the theory was put forth. Darwin himself said that if proof had not been found by his death, then evolution was not true.
There are countless transitional fossils (look them up, they're well documented on easily-accessible internet articles). All of the 'deathbed confession' nonsense about Darwin is usually mis-represented quote-mining which deliberately aims to skew his words. Furthermore, without evolutionary science, then none of the biological sciences make sense. It's an over-arching framework that links them all seamlessly.
