After successfully completing his trip around the world at age 19, Ryan Campbell’s plane crashed during a later flight at age 20. He survived and emerged as a paraplegic. He summoned a commitment to resilience, mental health, and well-being. “ We all need to stand upon this,” he said. He was rehabilitated and learned to walk again. “Life is lost and won above the shoulders.” #achd2024 #mentalhealth #ryancampbell #wellbeing
