How chronic back pain saved my life

Rich DeSalvo had it all. A big job on Wall Street, a fancy home in a rich New Jersey suburb, a beautiful wife and two healthy kids. Then the accident happened and changed it all. Pain killers only made the pain worse. His life spiraled out of control. And this is just the opening chapter of his heart-wrenching story. How he made comeback to a "new beginning," as he calls it, and how he is now helping those recover who have been seen their lives turned upside down by chronic pain, whether physical or mental, is the subject of this poignant short film. Learn how to fight chronic pain and win. In Rich's words, "Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional."

I have seen him live give this talk. He motived me like no one before. I have had chronic shoulder pain for years. He made me look at my pain in a whole new light. I cannot wait for his book.
