Nice to See

Tweet

The other day I was watching ESPN (a sports channel), and I recognized the guy giving the updates of games. It was Will Reeve, the son of Christopher and Dana Reeve. You may remember Christopher Reeve as Superman back in the 1980s films. And, tragically, he was paralyzed (from the neck down) after a horse riding accident. Christopher eventually died, and four years later, at just 44, Dana died of lung cancer. She was NEVER a smoker. I remember feeling bad for Will, because at the age of 12, he had become an orphan. Fortunately, Christopher had two older children who were in their twenties, and they took him in. Anyway, it just surprised me to see him. He looks like his dad, but more importantly, he looks happy. I like seeing people who have overcome tragedy. I hadn't thought about that family in years, but it was nice to see him successful.
