Christopher Reeve -- The Fight Goes On

Today marks three years since Christopher Reeve died -- nine years after he suffered a paralyzing injury when he was thrown from a horse. His wife Dana died of cancer in 2006. Seems like just yesterday when Superman saved the world!
Dana and Christopher Reeve
The Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation continues the work of the heroic couple, supporting spinal cord research and therapies for people living with paralysis.

3. Finally, something kind, uplifting and inspiring, amidst all the slime and filth from Britney, Kiefer, Paris etc. The Reeve family is wonderful and deserves our respect and love for carrying on the good work. BLESS THEM ALL, IN HEAVEN AND ON THE EARTH!

8. I still get choked up when I see photos of Christopher and Dana. I have been involved in charities for spinal injuries for many years and this couple was an inspiration. I hope someday there is a way to cure people with spinal injuries.

9. This couple was a class act in every way.

Life is so short.

10. May God rest their souls (and give them legs and lungs) and may He also watch over their kids and the rest of their family who must miss them both so very much.

11. They were a class act. I hope that their son is doing well. I felt so sorry for him when his mom died such a short after losing his dad.

15.

THANK YOU, TMZ for remembering these 2 wonderful people.

I hope and pray that their son is doing fine.

Talk about going thru a difficult life.

TMZ, I think that the majority of your viewers would like to see

Much more stories like this than about Britney or Paris or Lohan.

Food for thought.

But thanks again for remembering the Reeves.
