[Sydney, Australia] As a child, Kieran Revell suffered from the impact of an advanced speech stammer. He was taunted and constantly bullied from the age of seven until seventeen, when he cured himself of the affliction. For the first time in ten long, dark and miserable years he saw the world in a completely different light.
