text: dana reeves just died of lunge cancer at the age of 44, i read she lost chris then 3 months later her mom died i read the article in people and i never cry but, i did when i read her story. here is the run down, hold on to your seat-first, chris has accident-chris dies soon after-her mom dies 3 months later from cancer-she finds out she has cancer-her father has a stroke at the christmas table this past year-dana suddenly gets sicker and dies unexpectitidly. ouch! that hurts! why do you think all those horrible things happened to such a good woman?? i never question fate but, sometimes it's hard not to. it's a sad story because she was such a strong and great woman. she's in heaven with her husband and loved ones and that's the beautiful part of it all.
