Remembering Mattie Stepanek

Mattie Stepanek

One time as I was coming back on one sundays, i accidentaly caught a show of Oprah. You know, the one with the Ladder 49 cast that introduce the real life heroes that we have here today.

One of it was Mattie Stepanek

Mattie Stepanek is a very young poet, only at 6 years old he's written alot of short small poems. Unfortunately, he suffers from dysautonomic mitochondrial myopathy, which disrupts the body's breathing, processing of oxygen and heart rate. The cool thing about him is that he never gives up, and all his poems about life, and how peace should be in it, and everybody is the same.

Unfortunately at 22nd June 2004, he passed away.

You will be missed, Mattie Stepanek.
