“Everlasting Rose” by Rose Murphy RN, BSN, MHA has been released worldwide. This empowering, 130-page memoir tells the harrowing, inspiring true story of the author’s journey through multiple bouts with cancer and a litany of other diseases and treatments. Diagnosed with pancreatic cancer at the age of 56, Murphy – now 80 years old – aims to help others navigate challenges, find perseverance, and maintain hope by sharing her experiences with humor and honesty.
Murphy’s career as a registered nurse gives her particular insight into the patient experience, and her wisdom offers perspective through the lens of both a survivor and a medical professional. From her initial pancreatic cancer diagnosis, her long journey from 56 to 80 was marked by t-cell lymphoma, leukemia, autoimmune disease, sepsis, a car accident, and other setbacks.
These multiple diseases and complications gave Murphy a slim chance of survival, but by enduring chemotherapy, radiation, a bone marrow transplant, and countless hours in pain, she is still living a vibrant life of joy, using her firsthand experience to help others do the same. Throughout the book, she provides tips for every aspect of managing illness, from tools for disease prevention to maintaining a positive attitude.
Her personal experiences and medical expertise, alongside a willingness to be candid about the best and worst parts of her journey, make this memoir an empowering, hopeful read for cancer patients, those suffering from other illnesses, and their loved ones alike.

From the back cover:
Through a humorous lens, I took a dramatic journey of survival through three life threatening cancers (pancreatic, t-cell lymphoma, and leukemia), and their treatments (chemo, radiation, and bone marrow transplant), plus sepsis and other conditions from age 56 to my present age of 80. Everlasting Rose provides you with hope and disease prevention tools and techniques to overcome the odds. With all these conditions it was determined that I had a 1 in 1,000 chance of survival. My mission is to help you with your journey.
About the author:
In the beginning I was a Catholic Italian girl, growing up in a sheltered Italian community and in the end, I had traveled extensively in the United States and Europe. My education as a nurse with a Bachelor’s and Masters afforded me opportunities to experience many aspects of health care: teaching, administration, sales, and consulting. However, at age 56 I was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and my long tortuous journey through disease after disease began. During these years I endured much pain, suffering and anxiety. However, I always stayed positive, even joyful and hopeful for the next day. I am now 80 and would like to share my unbelievable survival story with you.
