How awful, she was nice, and was supporting to find a cure.

RIP

Christopher Reeves was and still is one of my heroes (pun intended) Very few people with his courage and intelligence have ever blessed this world like Chris did. His compassion and will to live puts most of us to shame.

This is sad, but at least now she is reunited with her husband

The world needs more people like Dana and Christopher Reeves that’s for sure.

It certainly gives credence to the old story that lung cancer happens to unhappy people. Poor woman, she certainly had her share of heartbreak.

Very very sad.

My thoughts are with their family.

Life is so short, isn't it.

Its scary to think she was only diagnosed in August. Poor woman, so young.

I noticed that.
If a mod is watching could you please change it to "Reeve".
