Reeve Children Carry On Fight.... Late Superman star Christopher Reeve's children have pledged to continue their father's search for a cure to paralysis.The actor died in 2005, nine years after he was left paralysed by a horse-riding accident. Before his death he established the Christopher Reeve Paralysis Foundation to fund research for therapies and a cure.His three children from two relationships, Alexandra, 24, Matthew, 27 and Will, 14, all serve on the foundation's board.Alexandra - Reeve's daughter with former partner Gae Exton - says, "Our dad's accident really did connect us to this community: four million people in the US who are suffering from paralysis. We understand how important it is not only to find a cure but also to improve quality of life".Reeve's widow, Will's mother, Dana Reeve died from lung cancer earlier this year (06).0Comments | Be the first to comment!
