When writer and mother Amber Sweet Davis heard the words “your child has cancer,” her world changed forever. In this powerful episode of A Trauma Survivor Thriver’s Podcast, host Lorilee Binstock sits down with Amber to discuss her emotional memoir, Please Don’t Die — a raw, unfiltered look at motherhood, trauma, grief, and resilience in the face of unimaginable loss.
Amber opens up about her four-year-old son’s neuroblastoma diagnosis, the emotional and physical toll of treatment, and how writing became her lifeline. Together, they explore what it means to mother through fear, find strength in vulnerability, and hold on to love and hope even in the darkest seasons.
This episode is for anyone navigating grief, parenting through crisis, or healing after trauma — a reminder that survival isn’t about perfection, but about the courage to keep showing up with an open heart.
