Twisted Tragedy: Teresa Silvestri, Life Long Paramedic and Courageous Matriarch

Twisted Tragedy  – My Guest, Teresa Silvestri, Life Long Paramedic and Courageous Matriarch.

“You will face many defeats in life, but never let yourself be defeated.” ~ M. Angelou

 

Sometimes in life our path starts to become clear when we have a moment that connects with us and we can see ourselves being part of the solution.  It was a moment like that which set Ms. Teresa on a path to become a healthcare provider.

 

In 1989, Ms. Teresa’s mother and her sister were involved in a horrible car accident which left her sister dead and her mother in critical condition.  So, in 1991, Ms. Teresa started down the path that eventually led her to getting her paramedic license.  Then in December of 2001 an incident took place that would forever tie us to a place and time.  I had only been a paramedic for 3 months when I responded to an accident scene as a volunteer first responder.  The accident happened to involve her 18 year old son, and it wasn’t until this episode that Ms. Teresa knew that I had been there on that day and road to the hospital in the ambulance.

 

Ms. Teresa’s story is unfortunately riddled with loss and tragedy, as you will hear in this episode.  However, it is her desire to keep moving forward, to keep living life, to lean on her faith, and is nothing less than incredible and truly an inspiration.

 

Habeeb Akande once said, “God gives his toughest battles to his strongest soldiers.”  After hearing Ms. Teresa’s life journey, I am certain that you will agree that God certainly sees her as one of his strongest soldiers.
