On that fateful day in October 2017, lives were forever altered when a heartless individual unleashed a wave of terror during the Route 91 Harvest Music Festival in Las Vegas. The aftermath of the attack left 48 people dead and 851 injured, leaving emotional and psychological scars that will endure for a long time to come.
Among the victims was Jovanna Calzadillas, a 30-year-old mother who attended the concert with her husband, Francisco ‘Frank’ Calzadillas. As chaos erupted and panic filled the air, Jovanna was struck in the head by a bullet and collapsed to the ground.
Jovanna was rushed to the nearest hospital, but her chances of survival seemed bleak. The gunshot wound to her head left her in a critical condition, forcing her husband Frank to confront the unthinkable and consider the unthinkable: whether or not to “pull the cord.”
Frank was devastated, faced with an unimaginable burden. In the midst of this nightmarish situation, something incredible happened. One night, Frank had a vivid dream – his wife appeared to him, whispering five life-changing words: “everything will be fine.”
When Frank awoke, his decision was resolute – he refused to disconnect Jovanna’s respirator. He held tightly onto his hope for his wife’s recovery.
Miraculously, against the odds, Jovanna woke up. The doctors themselves were astonished by this extraordinary turn of events.
“Her gunshot injury was severe, but through our prayers and hope, she woke up,” said Frank, a dedicated police officer with the Salt River Police Department in Arizona.
For months, Jovanna fought with unwavering determination to reclaim her life in the aftermath of the Las Vegas tragedy. Progress was often slow and frustrating, but she remained resolute, not only for herself but also for her family.
Since her awakening, Jovanna has courageously shared her incredible story. Confronting her past struggles is never easy, but she continues to speak openly about her feelings and her journey towards regaining a sense of normalcy.

“I will fight for my loved ones,” she adds. “I will never stop believing in myself.”
Her powerful message has resonated with victims of the terrifying attack in Las Vegas and countless others worldwide who may be grappling with fear following their own tragedies.
