Abstract
Growing up the son of a professional hockey player - Tie Domi - Max saw from an early age what it took to make the NHL: grit, talent, and the support of a team. Over countless hours in the garage, at the rink, and in the gym, Max chased his dream. It seemed that Max was born to be on the ice.
But then, when he was twelve years old, Max started getting sick. And sicker. Eventually, he and his family learned the truth: Max had type 1 diabetes.
Overnight, Max and his family found their lives upended. All Max wanted was to be a normal kid, but suddenly, the simplest things - a game of basketball with friends, a family meal, a school field trip - were complicated with a thousand different considerations.
As he struggled to find his new normal, Max slowly began to realize that overcoming his disease demanded the same qualities that it took to be a hockey player - mental and physical toughness, maturity, and the love and care of family and friends. Bit by bit, he learned - sometimes the hard way - not just to control his diabetes, but to turn it into an advantage. If managing his disease was going to demand that Max be stronger, more prepared, and more disciplined than anyone else, then he wouldn't just be good at those things: he'd be the best. He'd do whatever it took to move him closer to his dream of playing in the NHL.
