Amber and her husband, country music singer Granger Smith, lost their son River Kelly in 2019 to an accidental drowning. Today, she is bringing awareness to the silent killer.
After two anguishing days in the hospital spent hoping and praying for positive answers from doctors about their child’s condition, the couple decided to donate River’s organs when they understood a full life would not be possible.
