Before I get into the wonderful day that I had yesterday I’d like to take a minute to remember someone that passed away yesterday.
DH told me just before he left for work that Christopher Reeves passed away yesterday…most people will just feel bad for his family and think of what a horrible thing it is.
It could directly effect me and every other person that suffers from paralysis so his death is a little more emotional. He had to be the BEST spokesman there could EVER be for us and now that he’s gone it make you wonder what will happen with stem cell research on the paralysis end. Sure people will fight to keep it going for other diseases .. . but what what this one — it’s not a “disease” but it is a problem.
More about HOW he died. He was in the hospital for cardiac arrest that was a direct result of an infection he received from a pressure sore. That in itself is soooo scary. I was in and out of the hospital for FIVE months before DH and I married because of a pressure sore. . . the doctors told us how dangerous it was but we didnt think it could KILL anyone
Well thats really all I have to say for now . . . I’m usually not even up this early 
(I sleep until 10 or so, trying to get ALL the rest I can)
