This conversation with Matt Brown—a Spoony user all the way from Canada—left us feeling all the feels. Matt shared what it was like to be diagnosed with cancer just before the first major COVID lockdown, and how he got through it.
A passionate gamer, Matt now works in the adaptive gaming space, helping make games more accessible for people with diverse access needs. He also runs charitable livestreams and leads an organisation that delivers care packages to people newly diagnosed with cancer—offering comfort during one of the hardest moments of their lives.
