Pär Lundholm, 61, survived a devastating bombing at his apartment in Farsta, Stockholm, which left him with severe injuries.
The explosion, likely a case of mistaken identity, shattered his home and left him hospitalized with broken legs and burns.
Despite the trauma, Pär remains resilient, expressing gratitude that his son was not present during the attack.
A lifelong fan of Leksands IF hockey team, Pär was moved to tears when team representatives visited him in the hospital, gifting him a new jersey to replace the one destroyed in the blast.
The gesture brought a moment of joy amidst his recovery.
Pär, who has no ties to criminal activity, plans to sell his apartment, fearing for his family's safety.
This incident highlights the growing wave of violence in Sweden, with 32 bombings reported this year.
Pär’s story is a testament to human strength and the power of community support in the face of adversity.
