Climbing Back: One Woman’s Triumph After Near-Fatal Injury #shorts
Melissa Strong was living her dream.
Home was Estes Park, CO, gateway to the glorious Rocky Mountain National Park.

Her career was hospitality, managing a busy restaurant while fantasizing about owning her own place.
Then it happened: the dream and a nightmare. #rockclimber #plasticsurgeon #webmd #shorts
