About the solution
Joel was diagnosed with cancer when he was twelve months old.
Ryan is a game developer and Amy is a writer, and they launched That Dragon , Cancer in January 2016.
Green’s idea to make a videogame about Joel came to him in church, as he reflected on a harrowing evening a couple of years earlier when Joel was dehydrated and diarrheal, unable to drink anything without vomiting it back up, feverish, howling, and inconsolable, no matter how Green tried to soothe him.
“We’d love for the game to impact people and for it to be commercially successful,” says Amy. “But there’s a piece of me that says, maybe it’s just for us.”
