Dana Reeve passed away late Monday night at the tender age of 44 years old. She died of Lung Cancer even though she never smoked a cigarette. Even at only 44 years old she had lived a trying, at times difficult but happy life.
After Christopher Reeve's death October of 2004 she became the new Chair of the Christopher Reeve foundation. I admire this woman because she stepped up and took care of her husband when he needed it the most. It didn't matter that they were both famous, that he was Superman or that she had a successful acting career. She loved her husband and honored him until his last breathe.
If they were both the people they claimed to be... then there is a happy reunion in Heaven right now. They are both running around with new bodies and hugging each other. The family is in my prayers tonight.

I'm sad for their little boy--- I hope he has a good support system. what are the odds of losing BOTH parents in different incidents?
I think the odds are very remote that would happen. I think because she knew it was coming she had to have set him up with a great support network...You know Christopher Reeve had 2 older kids that stayed involved with her even after his death?
