Maggiori informazioni sul libro
As a child, Max Domi's sole ambition was to become a hockey player, inspired by his father's professional career. He dedicated countless hours to honing his skills, seemingly destined for the ice. However, at twelve, Max's life took a drastic turn when he was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. This revelation turned his world upside down, complicating everyday activities like playing basketball, sharing family meals, and participating in school trips. He grappled with concerns about being judged for carrying his blood-testing kit or perceived as weak by his teammates during hockey practice. The constant worry of managing his condition loomed large. Faced with these challenges, Max matured quickly, realizing that the same qualities required to succeed in hockey—mental and physical toughness, resilience, and a strong support system—were essential to managing his diabetes. Through trial and error, he learned to control his condition and even began to see it as an advantage. Determined to excel, Max committed to becoming stronger, more disciplined, and better prepared than anyone else, fueling his dream of playing in the NHL. This memoir is an inspiring account of a young boy navigating adversity and the journey to reclaim his dreams.
