Another sad loss in the Reeve family.
Late Monday, Dana Reeve, who won worldwide admiration for her devotion to her “Superman” husband, Christopher Reeve, died of lung cancer at the age of 44.
She announced in August that, while she wasn’t a smoker, she had been diagnosed with lung cancer.
Dana is survived by her 13 year old son and step-children.
A year ago, she won a Mother of the Year award from the American Cancer Society. A society vice president, Dr. Michael Thun, said Reeve “has shown strength and courage in the face of tremendous adversity.” Doctors say 1 in 5 women diagnosed with the disease never lit a cigarette.

Sorry to intrude on this part of the Board, but I figure you folks would like to celebrate the life of Chris and Dana Reeve. To that end, I have just finished watching 'Larry King Live' on CNN and he has just announced that he is devoting his whole show on Monday morning Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) at 02.00 to this wonderful couple. US viewers already know the local time for Larry King, but here in Europe we have to search out CNN on the various 'birds' (I watch it on Astra), so US viewers would regard this as the Sunday night Larry King show. Sorry to intrude, but the least I could do is to impart this info, knowing Larry it will be an informative and a well balanced programme, the kind of programme you need to see. Once again, CNN, Larry King Show, 02.00.GMT Monday morning, Western Hemisphere 'birds' only....this means Europe and North America (please note the GMT time, this is Sunday night for you USA folks) Hope this will reach you in a positive way with positive thoughts. Live Long and Prosper....
