He was so sure that he would live long enough to walk again, that I think he had everyone else believing in him too! (At least I did!). <br /> <br /> I saw a little segment on the Today show this morning and he was truly an amazing man. In his 9 years since the injury, he has sure done a lot with making people aware of spinal chord injuries and all the research that is still needed there. <br /> <br /> One of the doctors that had been working with him since right after his injury, summed it up nicely, he said that Christopher Reeve taught him the importance of 2 four-letter words - HOPE and CURE! He HOPES that they find a CURE some day......and so do I! Yes, it is a sad day indeed! Sad I was in shock when I heard about it today.
