You Can Survive and Live a Useful Life

About the Book

Edward R. Rogaishio, Author, Fine Artist, Deputy Fire Chief (Retired)

To all who suffer daily under the burdens of illnesses that fill the world my deepest wish is that this story gives them renewed determination and strength to endure and fight on and that those within whom hope is failing or nearly lost that each day may be at least a tiny bit better than the last so that hope for complete relief becomes a bit stronger every day.

-Edward

"Edward R. Rogaishio is, at once, a classic townie and a local version of a Renaissance man."”

-Chris Bergeron/Reporter/DAILY NEWS STAFF

"Quite impressive!" "Maybe writing this memoir can be an inspiration for future heart surgery patients."

-Kamal R. Khabbaz, M.D., Cardiac Surgeon, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center

You're wondering how you could possibly have survived … having endured so many life threatening medical episodes." "Instead of inviting pity you share your experiences with clarity and humor in hopes of making others less fearful. To that I say, bravo!"

-Linda J. Dixon, Secretary of the Corporation (retired) Tufts University

"I am sure many people will … gain immensely from your reflection and philosophizing." "You have made a terrific contribution to the local culture and history."
