I saw this this morning.... it is terrible news....
he actually died of heart failure that was the result of an infection. The infection possilby came from a bedsore.... And ms.katejones, a bedsore is something you get if you don't have alot of movement.
And I hate to see politics discussed in respects to Christopher Reeve dying -- but sadly, it is inevitable....

The world has lost a truly great person. Reeve did fantastic things for spinal cord injuries... not just research, but the fact that life isn't over for you if you become paralyzed. To me, he is a symbol of hope.
I believe that stem cell research is incredibly important. I mean, before it happens, all the risks involved must be calculated, but I think research should be government funded. The country can't acknowledge that cancer/other diseases/paralysis is a problem without wanting to do something about it. Some people say that it is the doctors "playing God" and it shouldn't happen... but if you believe in God, then don't you also believe that everything (including stem cells) was created by God?
In an unrelated note, I've always had high respect for Reeve because he never blamed his horse for the accident.
