Stephen Sutton's brother gets first class university degree
Stephen Sutton's brother is celebrating getting a first class honours degree - and he sat some of his final exams after the inspirational teenager had died.
Christopher, aged 21, averaged 81 per cent in his final exams in maths and mathematical physics at the University College London, and 87 per cent across the four years.
He started the finals when Stephen, of Burntwood, was admitted to hospital in April and completed the last three after he died of cancer.
His mother Jane revealed his 'incredible' achievement on the Stephen's Story Facebook page.
She said: "Everyone knows how amazing Stephen was.
"However, I also have another amazing son,Christopher who has been studying for the past 4 years at University College London.
"Yesterday he got his results and he will graduate with a First Class Honours degree in Mathematics and Mathematical Physics.
"Christopher,your achievements are incredible and I'm so proud of you. What makes this all the more impressive is that Chris was sitting his finals when Stephen was admitted to hospital in April then had to sit the remaining three after Stephen passed away.
"Congratulations Chris you're a star or 'awesome' which is how Stephen would have described you. Go out there now and celebrate in style - you so deserve it xx"
