Today is the 16th anniversary of Christopher Reeve's spinal cord injury from an equestrian accident. Ever since that day, Christopher became the courageous face of spinal cord injuries.
Sixteen years later, with the very exciting research breakthrough announcement last week, I can't help but to wonder how Christopher and Dana would feel if they were here to witness it. Fifteen, 20, 50 years from now when more breakthroughs emerge, I will be able to say "I remember when..."
So, on that note, Christopher said, "Nothing is impossible." How about that? Nothing is impossible, eh?
We'd love to hear your thoughts on this. What does this breakthrough mean to you?
