When a construction accident took his left arm in 1980, Willie Stewart thought his best days were behind him. What followed instead was a transformation few could imagine. From quitting life to conquering it, Willie became a world-class endurance athlete, a Paralympic medalist, and a beacon of resilience for adaptive athletes everywhere.
