There was a program on Christopher Reeve on BBC1 tonight here in the UK. It was about his battle against the paralysis and his campaining for stem cell research etc. Also showed his home life, and how one minute things were great and he could breathe without a ventilator and the next how an imfection to a tiny tiny cut almost killed him. Also showed how he was also directing two films as well a couple of months before he died.
Was a really interesting watch, very emotional seeing his struggle
