Dr. Christine Malone interviews Mark Berridge, who was involved in a tragic cycling accident that left him with six broken bones and two fractured vertebrae. Mark discusses how this accident has changed his life and how he had to completely relearn who he is now that he can no longer do the sports and outdoor events he once enjoyed.
Mark spent seven weeks in the hospital with a further ten months full-time focused on regaining his mobility. He will pursue physical rehabilitation for the rest of his life to sustain his gains and chase marginal improvements. The accident shattered his sense of identity, causing him to renegotiate his identity as a professional, husband, and father.
Mark is the author of "A Fraction Stronger," a multiple award-winning memoir – published March 2022 (Sept 2022 in USA). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoP7sXT-xvc&t=5s
