One of my friends shared something wonderful today. I've known Mack for a number of years. He is a talented musician, composer and a music therapist. He often visits nursing homes with his guitar and sings, and he has been involved with many people with disabilities and using his music to raise funds and awareness for things like therapeutic horse back riding, and skiing for those with disabilities. Before I had my spine surgery, I reached out to Mack as I was learning how to use music as therapy with deep breathing to relax and work on my lowering my anxiety, and he assured me that I was on the right track. You will see Mack in this film with his guitar with Max near the beginning of the film, and during the credits, Mack sings a song they wrote together. I was very moved by this and I think you will be too.

@jenniferhunter
That was VERY inspirational, he's quite a guy. Watching this brought a flood of emotions as I couldn't help but to think about my Dad who also was a quadriplegic.
Thank you for sharing.
