Two families, One survivor, Unwavering hope
Can you imagine getting a late night call that your daughter or sister has been involved in an accident but she didn’t make it. The family makes all the arrangements for a funeral that is well attended. Now imagine five weeks later you get another call that the daughter you just buried is still alive.
From the same accident, there is another call, to another family, that their daughter has been hurt, could you come to the hospital? This family holds vigil over their daughter for five weeks, signing everything needed to help her recover. Now imagine the shock of finding out through dental records she isn’t your daughter.
‘Mistaken Identity’ is the true story of such a case. Written by the Van Ryn and the Cerak families, this book tells of the heartache, loss, faith, and endurance of two families dealing with crises. Even reviewing it to write this summary, I still cried when I read about the Taylor University van accident that took five lives and changed others forever.
