Through The Eyes of a Patient: Transforming Pain Into A Thriving Life
Once celebrated as one of the world's fastest men, Charles Clark faced such adversity at a young age. With national victories and participation in global championships, he stood on the brink of a promising career until a career-ending injury shattered his dreams, leaving him feeling purposeless.
