Without Explanation Rod Jasmer

It was going to be the trip of a lifetime.

An enchanting trek through the Guatemalan jungle, viewing the mystical Mayan Ruins, a breath-stealing sunset from atop an ancient temple, a magical entourage of a million fireflies.

Then suddenly our wonderful adventure became a nightmare.

What followed was a roller coaster of hope and despair that would span the longest days of my life. As we frantically fought for my wife's life, we found ourselves far from the necessities we took for granted at home. Amid the heartbreaking twists and turns, though, were encounters with brave and selfless people who made a lasting impression during a horrific time.

Without Explanation is a true story. It's a story of anticipated adventure and remarkable courage, of heartache and disbelief, and of hope and fear. And at its very core, it's at once a life-altering tragedy and a story of love and devotion.
