My plan is to be able to interview a wide spectrum of people who all have a passion and a stake in finding a way to make the lives of these Pediatric Cancer Patients easier. I will interview oncologists, nurses, recovered patients, parents who have had to oversee their children's cancer fight, heads of Pediatric Cancer Foundations and Organizations , and others who would like to use this forum to advocate for these children.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-26T02:19:14.227691+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/help-and-hope-happen-here-1054717"},"episode":{"title":"Maribeth Ditmars will talk about her son Christopher who battled Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia before his passing when he was 14 in 2001, successfully battling her own demons, and the loss of her other son Jarrod in July of 2015","slug":"maribeth-ditmars-will-talk-about-her-son-christopher-who-battled-acute-lymphoblastic-leukemia-before-his-passing-when-he-was-14-in-2001-successfully-battling-her-own-demons-and-the-loss-of-her-other-son-jarrod-in-july-of","published_at":"2026-06-15T12:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/help-and-hope-happen-here-1054717/maribeth-ditmars-will-talk-about-her-son-christopher-who-battled-acute-lymphoblastic-leukemia-before-his-passing-when-he-was-14-in-2001-successfully-battling-her-own-demons-and-the-loss-of-her-other-son-jarrod-in-july-of","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/help-and-hope-happen-here-1054717","url":"https://www.buzzsprout.com/1218635/episodes/19347982-maribeth-ditmars-will-talk-about-her-son-christopher-who-battled-acute-lymphoblastic-leukemia-before-his-passing-when-he-was-14-in-2001-successfully-battling-her-own-demons-and-the-loss-of-her-other-son-jarrod-.mp3","audio_url":"https://www.buzzsprout.com/1218635/episodes/19347982-maribeth-ditmars-will-talk-about-her-son-christopher-who-battled-acute-lymphoblastic-leukemia-before-his-passing-when-he-was-14-in-2001-successfully-battling-her-own-demons-and-the-loss-of-her-other-son-jarrod-.mp3","summary":"Maribeth Ditmars has suffered plenty of heartache and loss for the past 25 years, beginning with the diagnosis of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in 1997 and the subsequent passing of her son Christopher at the age of 14 in 2001.
