I would love to hear his story. Any chance he will give an interview?

Max,
What an incredible young man you are! I can't wait to hear more about what you did to survive. Kudos to all the rescuers, hospital personnel, family and friends who took such great care of Max. Glad you are home and well.

Max, we're so glad you made it!! you were constantly in our thoughts. I wanted you to know how much everyone cared about you, and wanted to help give you the will to live. You've been in my thoughts ever since Sunday. I was totally pulling for you!! I have an 8-year old hockey-playing, skiing son myself. The news that you are alive, celebrating, and well is terrific; I can only imagine how relieved, happy & stoked your family and friends are. ENJOY LIFE!! Good work!!

Max,
What a heartwarming story! I am so happy that you are okay. What a loving dad and devoted family you have! You are a lucky boy in more ways than one...wonderful rescuers, doctors and the list goes on. I read about your story on the internet here in Indiana. Good luck to you! Your story made this mom's day.
