DIFFERENT, JUST LIKE YOU!
Please don’t miss this very emotional, riveting story at 5:30 pm today livestream on FB and YouTube! Today, LaRuelist Café will speak with Teska Frisby, author, mother, community activist, and public relations specialist. Teska and her husband, Samuel Frisby had unsuccessfully attempted numerous times to have a child. After many heartbreaks and miscarriages, God blessed this couple with a baby boy who didn’t arrive as a bouncing baby boy. Teska was less than seven months pregnant. That little baby boy was 1 ½ lbs at birth and diagnosed with cerebral palsy. While many would have viewed this as a dire situation, Teska and Sam saw it as a blessing, as an opportunity to approach life differently, as an actual miracle from God.
That young baby, Pastor Sam as we call him, will be 20 years old this year. An ordained minister, Sam is visionary and very perceptive. He’s humorous yet profound. Sam’s life journey prompted Teska to author the book, Different, Just Like You. She realized early on that some folks, mostly adults, looked at Sam as different from them. Teska, in her wise way of looking at life, pointed out that we’re all unique…we’re all different…even Sam is DIFFERENT, JUST LIFE YOU!
