Buy NowAbout Stefan
When I think about Stefan, what comes to mind is his smile- a huge ear-to-ear grin that you would think was drawn on his face because it never seemed to fade, no matter what he was going through. Stefan was diagnosed with epilepsy at 16-years, and regardless of his circumstances, Stefan's smile, positivity, and joy never wavered. He never allowed his diagnoses, of epilepsy, define who he was or what he accomplished in life. Those who knew Stefan describe him to have a smile that would change the world. This book is a reflection of Stefan - his life, spirit, positivity and smile.
