Episode Details

Behind every athlete is a story of perseverance—and often those who help make it possible. When Wendy Stacken's son, Nick, was born, doctors warned he would face significant health challenges and an uncertain future. Today, at 31, Nick's lifelong participation in Special Olympics reflects determination, commitment, and optimism—as Special Olympics athletes compete throughout the summer. His journey shows the impact of dedicated care and strong family support. Tune in for Wendy Stacken and Lucille Accetta of CVS Health to discuss caregiving, resilience, and helping individuals with complex medical conditions thrive.
