Roger Madoff was diagnosed with leukemia in 2002. After enduring two years of chemotherapy and radiation, two stem-cell transplants and numerous immuno-suppressive treatments, he felt strong enough to write about his experience.
Roger was a reporter for Bloomberg News and lived in New York City with his wife, Jen, and dog, Milo. He died on April 15, 2006, at the age of 32, from the debilitating side effects of his second transplant.
This book is filled with the strength, humor, love and hope that defined his life.

"Leukemia for Chickens"
Roger was my cousin. His memoir is honest to his personality and outlook on life. Roger was funny, smart, a keen observer and most of all, he saw the best of human nature in his life. His experience can teach us all alot about knowing when to challenge life and when to surcome to its challenges with grace.
While fighting cancer is no laughing matter, Roger was able to share with us his most intimate battle while letting us laugh with him at the many ironies of his situation.
As hard as it was for me to read Rogers story (I thought I had known it all, I didn't.) I found that I couldn't put the book down. It's an inspiring lesson in embracing all that life throws your way and experiencing it with those you love.
