Robert Chelsea survived the unimaginable – a fiery car crash, six months in a coma and more than 30 surgeries. But his journey didn’t end there. He made history as the first African American and oldest recipient of a full facial transplant. Now, he’s using his experience to advocate for organ donation and inspire change for equitable care in medicine.
