Unhappy RIP Superman

Actor Christopher Reeve has died at the age of 52, a day after lapsing into a coma, his publicist tells CNN.
This sucks, I thought he was stable.

what a terrible loss. He was a real 'super man'. He did so much good and inspired so many. He will be greatly missed.

I thought he was the coolest when I was a kid and I had the biggest crush on him when I saw him as Superman.

RIP Christopher........

I'm shocked, that's really sad. He was more of a "superman" during his recovery than he was in any of the movies.

I've been watching on the news all day about it. They are talking about spinal cord research which many believe is close to a cure in the next 10 years. This was stated by some doctor on MSNBC.

R.I.P Superman, he was an awesome human being that only did one thing wrong while he was here, he didn't have a herp collection.

Thats to sad I heard or well read in the paper that they were experimenting with some kinda fibre cord that they could attach to the broken ends of the spine and then inject with hormones which would make the person able to walk again one day. He was Signed up to be the tester. So its really sad that this happened cause he was a hero and would have been the hero reborn had it all panned out.

That is sad. He was doing a lot for spinal chord injury victims. My mom was a quadriplegic as well (car accident). She lived with it for 9 years. I was really praying for him. Hopefully one day such injuries will be able to be reversed and people will be able to walk, or even move and use their hands again.

RIP Superman
