For Grace founder Cynthia Toussaint's poignant story of resilience is shared in a groundbreaking pain management book published this month by University of Michigan pain psychologist Dr. Afton Hassett. Chronic Pain Reset , which includes a detailed 30-day self-care program, delves deeply into how evidence-based behavioral strategies can help people with chronic pain. Contributing to a chapter on values, virtues and strengths, Toussaint writes tenderly about her father's suicide and how she used his memory as an impetus to overcome what many called impossible.
