No one should ever have to experience the death of a child. Breaks my heart, but at least his story is one of courage and selfless action.

Rest in peace kiddo.
Brave lad.
RIP
A bright light, long may his personality and memory shine, takes a special person to reach that many with such positivity. Great loss.
Truly amazing what he achieved. RIP!
RIP. The boy did good.
RIP. Brave lad
Oh crap 🙁 sad news much braver than I could ever been.
Life really is a bastard sometimes. RIP son.
RIP. As said, nobody should have to bury a child.
Very sad ;o(
My younger brother died from the same thing last year (he was 36) so sadly I know all about it...
Thats sad news but he did/has brought a great deal of good into the world before he popped off.
😕
R.I.P Stephen 🙁
Very sad news, such a brave lad and a fighter.
At least his memory will live on and he has made a great impact on this world.
Very sad and I hope the people that took to social sites (claiming he was a con) when he was briefly released from hospital now feel utterly ashamed of themselves.
Sad yes, but on the other hand, strangely triumphant don't you think?
Reminds me of a conundrum that a friend raised once - "If the point of life is happiness and achievement, what does the actual length of it matter?"
Such an incredible boy.
I am amazed at how much courage these young people have in the face of death.
He reminds me a lot of my niece,always positive ,and was helping to raise money for TCT ,until just before she died .
She never reached her 18th birthday.
It is a good point Whoppit, but try asking that question of his mother and father and see what response you get.
It wasn't until I became a parent that the horror of losing a child ever became apparent. I'm not saying you have to have children to understand that, just that I didn't.
His parents must be very proud but so utterly heartbroken.
Damn it. Bit dusty in here. Parents must be shattered, but so incredibly proud.

Shouldn't think so...
A truly amazing guy. Burned much to briefly but very brightly while he did.
RIP Stephen.
Very sad. Did a lot in a little time. An inspiration to everbody.
Have fun wherever you may be free from the pain you endured.
RIP
What a brave young man. RIP
Don't quite know how you can be shocked when a terminally ill man dies but I am still shocked. He may have been very young but a true [b]man[/b] died today. Condolences to friends and family.
He achieved more than most of us ever will. RIP.
My lads were in 6th form with him,he was a really nice lad & never let it get him down.Such a shame,RIP
Selfless life, a Saint.
Very inspiring lad. In a a different sense than it's usual usage he chose to burn out rather than fade away. An amazing use of his last few years of life.
I could never be as brave as he seemed and I would have been terrifically proud if I had known him. Thinking of his friends and family right now.
I do hope mr Cameron was not using this tragedy to get his compasionate face in the media before the Elections. I'm sure even he would stoop that low.
my condolences to his family and friends.
he definitely made a difference.
Well done and goodbye kid...truly selfless and inspiring for so many.
