It's a documentary about Jesse Billauer, founder of [url=http://www.christopherreeve.org/site/c.ddJFKRNoFiG/b.5487235/k.886C/Life_Rolls_On.htm]Life Rolls On[/url]. In watching the movie, there's a section where Jesse and Christopher meet. I realized as I was watching, that was the first time I ever saw actual footage of Christopher post injury. Everyday I am reminded in pictures and photos of Christopher what the Reeve Foundation stands for, but seeing him in video was certainly something else all together. At one point, Jesse looked at Christopher and said, "Life rolls on, right." Christopher's response was simply, "Life rolls on." It wasn't Christopher's words that spoke so profoundly, it was his genuine smile as he said it.Despite being immobile, Christopher's smile spoke a language the rest of his body couldn't.[/size]Thu, 12 Aug 2010 17:03:34 GMTJLohttp://www.spinalcordinjury-paralysis.org/forums/Topic4395835-6626-1.aspxIn 2004 we lost Christopher and what seemed like just a few months late, Dana passed away in 2006. I find myself thinking alot about them both today, the anniversary of Chris passing away.Two years ago, I posted the following thoughts about the loss of Dana and Chris. Folks in the paralysis community were waiting for the next "Big Name" to be injured. Chris and Dana carried the torch for the paralysis community for a long time. They were the face of spinal cord injury.Today this seems appropriate to post,:March 2006Christopher and Dana built a wonderful Foundation to push for research as well as quality of life issues for everyone who has paralysis.Each and everyone here is the face of paralysis, you may be the person with SCI, a best friend, parent,child, sibling, or concerned neighbor. Perhaps you are a medical professional or researcher. Regardless of your connection to paralysis, you are a face that can make it real for the general public.It is up to each and every one of us to be ambassadors for paralysis, to spread the word and to effect change. We each have a story, some very gripping, and all of them worth hearing and being told. We can not sit back and wait for someone to be our voice, to champion our cause. We need to do that ourselves. Become knowledgeable, learn the facts, try to understand the politics as well as the science involved. Then, speak from your heart, frequently and passionately. The symposium in DC is a few months away. Many can't attend and I understand that, traveling with SCI is difficult. Even if you aren't there, help us pave the road to the Capitol by writing letters, calling Senators and Congressmen, telling your story. Make us a voice to be heard and reckoned with.Honor both Christopher and Dana by carrying their work forward. Lets show Will, Matthew, and Alexandra how much their parents efforts and sacrafices meant to us.Go Forward !--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Thank you,Every day I wake up is a good one.phf 59-08Tue, 20 Jul 2010 10:08:10 GMTPRC_Bernadette
