    Debbie Fragetti

    Debbie Fragetti is a Registered Nurse, a single mother of three children, and a foster mother to her grandchild. It has been very challenging for her, but at the same time very rewarding. Debbie had concerns with how not having traditional parents might affect a child and what kind of scars that might leave and so this book, "Just The Same" was born.
