Carlo Aspri

Good Luck?...Bad Luck?...You'll Know Tomorrow Carlo Aspri

Born with a condition causing misaligned eyes, Carlo Aspri faces painful and daunting challenges from birth.

Though doctors improve Carlo's condition with a series of painful surgeries and special eyewear, they cannot undo the emotional damage inflicted on the young boy. Marked by being different and the target of much bullying, Carlo's life becomes even more difficult when teachers discover he possesses severe learning disabilities.

Despite these hurdles, Carlo perseveres, channeling his hurt and pain into the one place he finds comfort-martial arts. But at the age of seventeen, life deals him a significant blow: his close friend dies unexpectedly, and a few months later, Carlo learns he has malignant testicular cancer.

Doctors offer little hope, yet Carlo refuses to give up. Drawing great strength and hope from his musical abilities and the comfort he derives from creating songs, Carlo faces his illness with courage and strength-surprising everyone when he decides to live life to the fullest and pursue a very successful music career in China.

An incredibly powerful story of one young man's refusal to let anyone or anything in life kill his dreams, this memoir will put a song of hope in your heart.
