About this listen

This is every parent's worst nightmare...

You go to wake up your eighteen-year-old son on Sunday morning for church and you find him dead in his bed. Only later do you learn he bought a single Xanax pill on Snapchat for fifteen dollars to calm his anxiety about the COVID-19 pandemic. He took the pill then ordered food from Door Dash, but he never lived to eat it. It was a counterfeit pill that contained over three times the lethal dose of fentanyl—that one pill killed him.

Mark Bodnarczuk's heart-wrenching memoir, Finding New Life After the Death of My Son, begins just hours into his process of mourning the tragic death of his teenage son.

With indelible sincerity and penetrating detail, Bodnarczuk shares the intimate details of his grief, inviting listeners into his moments of anguish, confusion, forgiveness, hope, and transformation. If you allow Mark to be the docent, he'll lead you on a journey down into the depths of grief and pain that plagued his soul, and then back up through his process of finding new life and a deeper sense of meaning after the death of his son.

The realistic experience a parent faces when one’s child is tragically killed by a counterfeit fentanyl tablet

Mark Bodnarczuk’s stark grief in finding his son Thomas dead in his bed from a single dose of “Xanax” that turned out to be counterfeit Fentanyl instead is a raw, heart-wrenching story of what is happening to multiple thousands of people in the US. The maddening journey Mark and his wife Elin faced in their pursuit of justice through the emotionally-battering legal system adds to the stark horror of their loss. The obvious love, attention and formative training they lavished on Thomas in his short life speaks volumes about this young man’s potential to have become a man of deep faith, integrity and strength. Let this book serve as a wake-up call to parents, adults and children alike who are clueless about the lethal dangers of Mexican cartels and the staggering number of lethal pills that infiltrate our country. And let it be a case in point regarding needed changes in the legal system which renders too little too late to those suffering this kind of terrible injustice.
