Christopher Reeve Died Yesterday
Here's the article with the details.
I don't know why this gave me a shock this morning. It's not like it's unexpected, or I knew him or anything, although I did have a schoolgirl crush on him. I think maybe it's simply BECAUSE he was so injured but hadn't died yet, I kind of started to think he never would. Like maybe, even though it makes no sense, I thought I could count on him to beat the odds forever?
It's not often you get slapped right in the face with proof that you've been carrying around a delusion. Weird.
I hope his family is able to find peace with his passing. He was certainly a man they could be proud of.
