The world can be divided into sinks and radiators. Stephen was definitely a radiator.

Sad news but truly amazing that the donations are flooding in to the JustGiving site - at a rate of several hundred pounds per minute.

Im not one for feeling the death of a known person, but he did seem like a good egg with his heart in the right place who achieved a hell of a lot in a short space of time.

RIP

I trust that those who slagged him off on the social media, saying it was all a put up job, feel suitably shamed.

There were those who slagged Jane Tomlinson off when she was doing her charity challenges. To her and her families credit they rose above it. Having seen I hope that they and whoever has been slagging off Stephen Sutton are embarrassed and ashamed but sadly I doubt it.

Fortunately, if the "slagging" had been happening on Facebook, then there would be no cloak of anonymity for the various cretins to now hide behind and suitable shame will follow. No doubt there's a lot of crap on various message boards though.

Those were great words from him and now from his mother on Facebook.

A ridiculously impressive character.

£3.5m!
In reply to 999thAndy:
Didnt even know about him and saw him on news at ten. He didnt seem the type who would be thankful of peoples sorrow so, young man, i raise a drink in celebration of your life and raise a smile at the massive benefit to others that money will be.

Aye came across as a great guy, I liked how honest he was, even about the anger he had over the misdiagnoses, but to deal with that and then look to do so much good was impressive.

What an amazing person. My utmost sympathies to his family. To face, and defy (last month) death with courage and humour. To have achieved so much in such a short time. Huge admiration. Chapeau Sir.

That's just what I was thinking earlier.

Wondering if there is some way that this chap's name can be honoured for posterity.

I think he'll be remembered for the good he did long after you and I are done and dusted.
