    “I could hardly snap my fingers with my right hand. Everything I tried seemed to make it worse. It got to be, some days, that all I could focus on was the pain.” That is how David Chavez, a Colorado Springs native, described the life-altering medical issues he’d been dealing with for months.

    Adam Roberts is a dad. And like many dads, he makes the occasional run to Culver’s.

  • HEALING CONNECTION

    It takes a skilled doctor to ease a worried patient’s mind. After all, no one visits the doctor for fun. You go because something’s wrong or because you’re afraid something’s wrong. You’re looking for hope in the midst of pain, for answers when your own body feels unknown and uncertain. In these moments of stress and anxiety, a good doctor—with a comforting word and a desire to meet patients where they are—can have an incredible emotional and physical impact.
  • FIGHTING CHANCE

    Cinema is full of inspiring tales about overcoming challenges. One of the most moving is the story of Rocky Balboa. By all accounts, Rocky should have given up his boxing career. However, with some lucky breaks, his mental tenacity, and help from his close friends, Rocky overcame the odds and achieved something nobody thought possible. Rocky is a beloved character whose story provides insight into struggles and challenges familiar to men from every walk of life.
