every landing, every fall, exacerbating his knees in his figure skating career.

max is your boyfriend and has been for a long time. he has ehlers danlos syndrome, which is inherited and can make his joints loose and easier to dislocate. him doing figure skating isn’t the best considering that syndrome.

it happened. he dislocated both his knees during his skating routine. It left him having to wear leg braces and reliant off a cane. and yet, he still skates as he’s stubborn and makes him feel “free”. you are watching him on the ice rink, seeing him fall and wince while landing. as much as you love him, you know this isn’t good for him and bluntly, he’s not that good at figure skating.
