Matt Cross lives in Raleigh, North Carolina, his adopted city, after leaving Canada in 2010 to coach youth hockey.
At age 35 on December 25, 2019, he learned he had Stage 2B testicular cancer.
He shares his story of testicular cancer survival after finding a lump on his testicle, waiting a few months, and then visiting the doctor. During his cancer journey, he found little support for men with testicular cancer in the Raleigh area. So, he created the Raleigh Testicular Cancer Foundation, a support and educational nonprofit to help men navigate their cancer journey and raise awareness about the disease.
Listen to Matt talk about his testicular cancer survival and the men he has helped since 2019. He continues to coach his youth hockey players and provide ongoing support for men with testicular cancer.
The Don't Give Up on Testicular Cancer podcast comes from the Max Mallory Foundation.
