Post by Guest Wed May 14, 2014 1:55 pm

Teenager Stephen Sutton, who raised more than £3m for charity after his bucket list went viral on the internet, has died after losing his cancer battle.

Writing on his Facebook page, his mother wrote: "My heart is bursting with pride but breaking with pain for my courageous, selfless, inspirational son who passed away peacefully in his sleep in the early hours of this morning, Wednesday 14th May.

"The ongoing support and outpouring of love for Stephen will help greatly at this difficult time, in the same way as it helped Stephen throughout his journey.

"We all know he will never be forgotten, his spirit will live on, in all that he achieved and shared with so many."

Ah,that's sad Sad

That brave young man will rest in peace with his good intentions and helping to raise that massive sum of money ...

Well done also to all the people who donated..

We are all human at the end of the day, and some of us have already been affected in some way by that terrible disease.

Such an inspiration and so, so brave.

Stephen Sutton, the inspiration teen who raised millions for charity as he battled cancer, has died.

Sutton, 19, from Burntwood, Staffordshire, died after being re-admitted to hospital at the weekend with breathing difficulties and his family said his condition was rapidly deteriorating.

Tributes poured in to the courageous teen who was first diagnosed with cancer aged 15. David Cameron, who had met Sutton and called him "inspirational" posted a tribute to Twitter.

R.I.P

I cannot believe there were those mindless idiots claiming he was faking with hurling abuse about him over the net, this young man was a true inspiration.

They're saying on Sky that more donations are flooding in since this was announced. He's done a fantastic job for the charity.

Was on the tv when I was in the bank this morning, everyone went quiet. But how brave he was. A short life but one well lived. RIP and may your Mum and Dad find a way to cope.

His family are incredibly proud I'm sure. Even when people questioned his remarkable but sadly short recovery he remained dignified and resolute  I love you

RIP young man. If there is a heaven then you have certainly earned your place up there.
You packed more into your short life than many people do in a lifetime and you even left behind a legacy that can be used to help others who may suffer from this terrible disease.
