## Caption

Before he was a wish kid, Matty was just a kid who loved baseball. 💙⚾At 12 years old, a rare brain tumour turned his world upside down;. Four rounds of Chemotherapy. Multiple surgeries. Four Weeks of Radiation. Learning how to walk, speak and swallow all over again.

But there was one thing Matty never stopped thinking about: Baseball.

Some dreams are bigger than a diagnosis.

✨This Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, every donation to Make-A-Wish Canada will be matched 2X, helping bring hope to even more children like Matty. ⭐ We'll share the rest of Matty's story later this week -- we can't wait for you to see where his wish took him.
