While John survived the Nagasaki atomic bomb as a prisoner of war in Japan, Sonja endured the Holocaust, surviving the concentration camps in Nazi Europe including Auschwitz, the most notorious of all the death camps.Diagnosed with cancer at the young age of 29, Roslyn turns to her parents’ examples of resiliency and NEVER GIVE UP attitude as inspiration in her own fight to beat cancer and become a long-term survivor.How did John and Sonja survive? How did they meet? What did Roslyn learn from her parents that can help us all live better lives and make our world a better place? The answers to these questions and more are what make up the amazing story that Roslyn shares on both the page and the stage in her book and multi-media presentation, Meant to Be. Her parents' story was the subject of a television documentary that was nominated for a Gemini award and a movie adaptation of her book, Meant to Be, is currently in development for production as a feature film. ​​For more information and to invite Roslyn to speak for your next event, visit http://www.roslynfranken.com.
