Max

Storyteller Jay O'Callahan tells a tale about love, dancing and miracles. At a young age, Max was told he would never dance again--and he got braces on his legs. His grandmother wasn't willing to accept this and pushed Max to strengthen his legs and mind--she said if you are in love and have a song you can do anything. As a teenager he learned that both these things were true.
