[QUAD-L] Christopher Reeve
Hey folks, I don't know if you guys know or not there's a story on my homepage about Christopher Reeve, he died on Saturday from a heart attack. Some people only recognised him from Superman, but for SCI survivors his known for a more valuable reason. I know myself I will be praying for support to be given to his wife and son in the future Love Smurf xxx
Re: [QUAD-L] Christopher Reeve
He said he wanted to walk before the age of 55. Well, for those who "believe" he's walking now.
[QUAD-L] Christopher Reeve- Final Walk With God
Thanks for the head up, I just heard about it this morning. I'm sorry for his family's loss, but know that he is in a better place. His memory is still alive and let's hope that his mission will not be lost in death.

Re: [QUAD-L] Christopher Reeve
A thank God for the life of Christopher Reeves for what he did in helping others.My problem is that I never heard him put his hope in the Lord. That's where you should have been.I will not judge whether he is walking . now are not. I only know that I never heard him witness to the glory of God.I have lived 48 years as a quadriplegic, C 3 --5. My hope is placed in Jesus Christ. I believe that believers will all receivea new body after this one dies.I believe that we are created to give glory to God with our lives. God bless all the quadriplegics in our group at Quad L..Sincerely , Jimmy In a message dated 10/11/2004 9:01:53 AM Central Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: River He said he wanted to walk before the age of 55.

Re: [QUAD-L] Christopher Reeve
Thiswas shocking news to wake up to and very sad day for scipeople. I just couldn't believe it. I hope he's walking or whateveryou do in the after like. A true hero. Mark ---Original Message--- From: River Wolfe Date: Monday, October 11, 2004 9:01:13 AM To: quad Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] Christopher Reeve I am so sad. I've been crying off and on all morning. Both me and my brother are in a wheelchair, Superman put a face to our plight. Superman was controversial in the disability community immediately after his accident, when he demanded that he would walk again. Many of us, me included, were upset that he had given up a great chance to represent us and our situations, the need for care not cure. Superman stepped up to the plate and did just that. HE did more for our cause and research than anyone could ever have done. Superman spent every waking hour fighting for our recognition and our needs. Every-time we complain or whine, we should think of him and do action in his honor. A true hero.River He said he wanted to walk before the age of 55. Well, for those who "believe" he's walking now.

Re: [QUAD-L] Christopher Reeve/Go ahead yell at me now
Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] Christopher Reeves / Go ahead yell at me now I won't yell at you, however, each person must live their life to their fullest not yours. I believe that Christopher did as much for the care of quadriplegics and spinal cord injuries as he did for the cure. He did this simply by bringing it to the attention of the media and many other people. In my opinion he was a true hero and will be sadly missed by all, especially me. Enough said. Gale :-( [QUAD-L] Christopher Reeves / Go ahead yell at me now I am sorry for his family's loss, sorry for his untimely accident and death. I may be in the minority, but I don't remember one interview that he advocated putting money into research for the existing quads as far as the betterment of our care. Every time I saw him interviewed, it was "a cure for him" and I applaud him for that. The truth is that someday there may be a cure, but I am not sitting around focusing on that cure. I am living my life to the fullest and enjoying all the things I can. I enjoy the blue sky, the turning of the leaves in autumn, the first crocus flowers to appear in spring, the big beautiful Monarch Butterfly Yes, if I would have unlimited funds, I may have started therapy 3-4 hours per day, but look what he missed out on.

[QUAD-L] Christopher Reeve
Mr. Reeve was a believer. No, he wasn't a charismatic believer as others felt he should be, but he privately believed. I believe that he was a good Christian in the works he did. He set the example for others to follow... and improve. I know of no other individual who has produced a greater sum of capital resources to the cause than Mr. Reeve. He provided hope to those who had no hope. He help provide recognition when there was very little. He kept the faith alive within himself. Let he who can prove that they are better believers, toss the first rock. He wore his faith... on his heart for those who suffered to make a better life thru research. For that May he rest in peace.

Re: [QUAD-L] Christopher Reeve
Title: Re: [QUAD-L] Christopher Reeve Mr. Reeves was both famous and wealthy. His fans were both domestic international. Yet he was humble in his embrace of a cause that he wanted to share with every other spinal-cord victim. The fervent dream of, and hope for a triumph in modern medicine over spinal cord damage, is a cause to which he dedicated his life. It is altogether conceavable that while it is too late for him, his devoted efforts to that end may one day be the salvation of one or many, who are todays and tomorrows spinal cord victims. May we join in honor and respect for a noble man, who gave his all, to a noble cause. May he indeed rest in peace.
