What do you do when your life is turned completely upside down in a single moment? How do you continue to live when one of the most important people in your world is stolen from you in such an unfair way? How do you overcome a loss that is deeper than you feel you can handle? What do you do when the heaviness is unbearable and relief from the pain is unattainable? These were the questions that I faced on September 25, 2022. My thirteen-year-old son, Jonathan Thomas Zerzavy, was returning home from a college football game when the vehicle that he was in was struck by a drunk driver traveling in excess of one hundred miles per hour. At that speed, there was nothing that could have been done to prevent the inevitable. Jon was jolted loose from his seat belt and ejected from the vehicle. His tiny frame could not withstand the trauma that was bestowed upon it, and he was killed instantly. Resilience is not easy when everything you thought you knew is shattered in a moment. Everything that was a certainty is now overshadowed with doubt, and the things that seemed important in life are no longer as significant as they once were. The journey of healing is extremely difficult, but there is hope when you are hopeless. God can heal you and restore you. He can take a situation that was meant to destroy you and use it to redefine your purpose for being. Even when you can't see it, there is joy to be found in your journey. This book is intended to honor the life of my son Jon, to share his story, and to provide a perspective that has been gleaned from walking the most difficult path that I have ever traversed. After reading this, it is my hope that you are better equipped to navigate whatever challenge is before you and that the perspective gained allows you to both identify and operate in your intended purpose for the rest of your days.
