Christian Larmon dreams of performing on the True Crew competitive boys team, but he can't move like the other boys.

The 11-year-old has a brain and nerve disease called Cerebral Palsy.

Right now Christian is dependent on his walker, and cannot really get around without it.

The one thing he wants more than anything is to make it a thing of the past.

Next month Christian will have a specialized surgery called Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy.

"He just dropped to the ground. He was so excited when I told him," said Christian's mother, Krissy Larmon.

Krissy says the surgery will make his legs flexible, and he will learn to walk without the aid of his walker.

Christian is not wasting any time until the big day comes, the True Crew Boyz perform a dance choreographed with him in mind.
