STITCHING STRENGTH
Featuring Dr. Rick Bedlack ’88

Stitching Strength captures the fight against ALS, a terminal disease that strips away the body’s control; through a lens of creativity, courage, and connection. At its heart is Dr. Rick Bedlack (W&M ’88), a neurologist whose bold fashion and bolder optimism set the tone for a radically different kind of care. But this isn’t just his story. It’s about the patients who refuse to be defined by their diagnosis and the families who turn grief into art, music, and action. Read more about Dr. Bedlack’s work to find a cure for ALS in the W&M Alumni Magazine.
