Mattie Stepanek

Mattie Stepanek was an American poet and peace advocate known for his inspirational poetry written during his battle with muscular dystrophy.


"If it came to a magic genie, I would ask him for two extra wishes. One would be that no one would have to live with the muscular dystrophy disease or any disease. And the second one would be world peace, that we just stop fighting, talk about things, and we could live in harmony once again, like God intended us to do."
