ABOUT THIS EPISODE
On April 15th 2013 Roseann Sdoia was watching the Boston Marathon on Bolyston Street when a bomb blew up only feet away from her and changed her life forever. Roseanne was gravely wounded and as a result her right leg was amputated above the knee. Roseann’s life was saved by first responders and nearby civilians who took life saving actions in a chaotic and violent scene. One of those first responders was Boston Firefighter Mike Materia, who later became her husband. Listen as Roseann and Mike share their experiences from that day and what they learned through it all. Roseann is also the author of her book, Perfect Strangers, where she details the events of that day and everything that followed.
