We kicked off our 2018 Change Agent Pain Summit with this powerful 5-minute video that included testimonials from women and men in pain along with their caregivers. Responding to the question "What is chronic pain to you?", the participants provided poignant insight into the world of high-impact, persistent pain for our summit luminaries. Please view the video HERE - and a big thank you to all who had the courage to be vulnerable with their pain experience.
A must read and view! Check out this amazing, thorough and heartbreaking FOX News national series that For Grace is proud to have pitched, interviewed and consulted for two years ago. Thank you, writer Elizabeth Llorente, for being brave enough to tell the other side of the opioid CRISIS! This three-part series will save many who are challenged with high-impact persistent pain. Bravo!!
