Thank you for fighting to the end, and fighting to get new research into medicines which could make my life better sometime in the future. Showing us we can all be super men and women. *SpellCheck*

Why?
What's so fucking great about him?
That was crippled?
There are cripples begging you for money everyday and you look right past them, don't give dumbass shit about how a celebrity cripple is such a great man.
And by the way, he would never have been famous if he had been crippled since birth.

holy shit, really? You mean they might not have chosen a cripple to play superman? OH THE IRONY
People like him because instead of feeling sorry for himself and just buying shit to make his life easier, he funded a ton of research.

1. He funded and fought for new research into his disease. 2. You don't know me, and you don't know how I treat cripples, just because this is how you treat people or you see people treaten in Calgary does not mean you know how things work where I am from or how I go about my business. On this one, I call you ignorant. 3. He might have been the scientist that cured cancer, or any of a thousand things. Debilitating diseases don't have to stop a person from being famous or a great human being or even leader. I praise him for never giving up.

Christopher Reeve has a special place in my heart. I love him very dearly and he will be missed. He is a hero. He is an inspiration. Where most people would have killed themselves if they were dealt what Christopher was given on the fateful spring day in 1995, Christopher Reeve went on - and became only stronger. I encourage everyone here to read his autobiography, Still Me. He had HOPE. And that's more than you can say about most people.

He wasn't just crippled. He was paralyzed from the neck down.
Christopher Reeve will go down in history - I believe that when a cure for spinal cord injury is discovered, it's going to be entwined scientifically to the research risks that Christopher Reeve ardently adovcated.

i don't think the man was 'so fucking great'. i could care less if he was famous, crippled or not. damn, it's like some people had some DEEP hate for the man.
i just have the fucking decency to not crack jokes and shit about people who have just recently died. maybe it's just how i was brought up.

oh come on
check my posts in s&p to see how I feel about chris reeve. I spent a couple posts defending reeve, and explaining why I think he made a positive difference in the world.
unlike a lot of you, apparently, I'm able to joke around without being serious.

Why is death such a sacred topic that no one can even joke about it. Personally I like the maddox take on Reeve- but then I'm not a very nice person.
