Description

In this video, I'll be sharing the complete story of the video game, "That Dragon, Cancer". Spoiler: This is one of the most emotional videos you'll ever watch. I'll be sharing how Joel Green and his family battled cancer. And explain why millions of people cried for a child they never met using psychology and philosophy. _____ Like & subscribe if you enjoyed the video to not miss out on future uploads!
