I am Woman
When you are different to others’
how many leaps
of faith
do you
need to take
to embrace life fully
as a mother,
career woman and
activist?
♥
When forty something arts development promoter
and award winning
activist Marlene Le Roux
was just three months old she contracted polio.
A negligent and racist medical system
during the height of South
Africa’s apartheid years
failed to protect her from what
in the mid
1960’s was already a
preventable disease.
Marlene was just one of many.
♥
Today this outspoken and respected mother,
wife and career woman shares
her leaps of faith and life journey with us,
describing her challenges
as a child,
her emerging political activism
and the leaps that she and
her husband have had to make as parents to two children,
one of whom -
their son Adam - is also disabled.
♥
Marlene shares with us how Adam has
transformed her life
and what it takes to look after herself and Adam,
both having lives that will always require
medical care and attention.
she is an inspiration.
