I haven't been moved to add to the blog for a long time, maybe we have all been hunkered down in survival mode thinking of our own futures. But now I am moved to write and hope that you will be moved when you hear the story of Alex, a talented young dancer who against a whole heap of difficulties in his early life forged a great future as a professional dancer but who has been stopped in his tracks by a broken neck. This is no ordinary boy though and his story will have you alternately reaching for the Kleenex and then hopefully clicking on the go fund me and donate to his future recovery. When I met him, he was a teenager, full of energy and enthusiasm for his chosen life of dance. What I saw about him was that the dance wasn't in his feet it was in his eyes and when you watch the film you will see that the dance is still there
He will tell you in his own words how he broke his neck. One moment, playing frisbee with friends, the next facedown in the river facing a new rather daunting set of obstacles. Pulled out by friends, resuscitated by paramedics, intensive care, operations, Stoke Mandeville and now working working working on his future. Let's get going and make that future dance.
