Painting, dark humor and community support is how Rebecca Koltun shares her story on TikTok

Rebecca Koltun wanted to go to medical school, but a life changing ski accident in 2021 resulted in her being paralyzed from the neck down. Koltun began posting TikToks in the hospital to show how she paints by using her mouth as well as other tasks that she does on a regular basis. Now, the 24-year-old has expanded her content creation to include trends and dark humor, which has garnered her millions of views and several thousands of followers. #newyork #quadriplegic #tiktok Subscribe to our YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/3jLQjUN Subscribe to Newsday.com: newsday.com/socialoffer ~ FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA ~ @newsday on Facebook, Instagram and X. @newsday.tv on TikTok.
