My Brave Face is a book of love, inspiration, history and comedy.
This real-life recount tells the story of Stephen, a sufferer of the rare and incurable bone disease, Osteogenesis Imperfecta (brittle bones).
Stephen had a little body but he had a huge heart.
He balanced his adversities with wisdom, courage and humour. He provided insight, compassion and encouragement to all who met him.
Stephen was my son, but most of all my best teacher. He taught me what real love is. He opened my eyes to the true values of life and showed me what really matters.
"When you go into the garden, you will see a lot of plants. There will be one flower of the brightest colour that stands out amongst the garden."
That would be Stephen - and this is his story.
