Max's story

[Rick]

What an inspirational young man, If only many more people had his attitude to life, And well done to Clayton's Towing for giving him the chance to live his dream.
34 thousand Australians live with cerebral palsy.

Max Quaglio is one of them. It has affected the way he moves and the way he speaks, but it certainly hasn't affected the way he thinks.

He's a got a job, he's going to uni, and he's looking for an internship, to further his business studies.

Amazing story Rick.
Just goes to show, it is the power and health of the mind, every time!
It has sure seen this young man passed his physical difficulties.

It is those with no outward physical signs, yet suffer an illness of the mind that still go unnoticed and suffer the most today i feel.

My partner works with kids like the chap in this video, she comes home with amazing stories of their memory recall, it is like a computer.
Much like this kid with his cars.
I have to hand it to those that work in this role, whom have an ability to find the strengths in these kids that would otherwise fall through the cracks of traditional learning.
Just takes someone to take the time with them, to find another way forward.

Wife's carer works with disabled kids and horses. They were competing in the "olympics" just last week. Kids from interstate came into compete on horses and using gear that they were totally unfamiliar with and still performed to a standard that would put able bodies athletes to shame. Personally, I am totally disgusted that all the money that gets spent on things like the Olypmics and the Commonwealth games for able bodied athletes when those who have a physical or intellectual disability are almost totally ignored. Often they have had to work twice as hard, or more, to achieve the level that they have.
