Adam Pearson was diagnosed with neurofibromatosis at age five. Tumors grew on his face, drastically altering his appearance and leading to his classmates treating him like he wasn’t human. His life was destined to be very different to the norm, but Adam resolved to never let those who treated him poorly win.
Today, Pearson has become a role model for many, acting in films, appearing on television, and doing his best to erase the stigma of his condition.
His story is truly inspiring – and is worth sharing with all of your friends and family.
It’s easy to complain about small things in our everyday lives. Maybe your morning coffee was a bit cold, the bus was running late, or that television show you watched last night wasn’t as good as you had hoped it would be.
