Dana Reeve

Dana Reeve, widow of the late Christopher Reeve, has died of lung cancer at the age of 44. I feel so sad for their young son, Will, who is now left without either of his parents.

Christopher Reeve was a man whose life (and death) touched me on a very personal level. Dana stood by him through thick and thin, and I admired the courage she showed throughout her years at Christopher's side. It's not easy having to watch someone you love go through such pain and heartache. After Christopher's death, she was then faced with her own struggle for life, which she has now tragically lost.

My thoughts and prayers go out to her family and friends, but especially to little Will, who has already lost so much more than any child should ever have to.

I hope that Christopher and Dana are now together again, walking side by side, with all the pain and heartache behind them. May they rest in peace.

Sad news

I'm sure many of you will have heard the sad news by now, but nandibble passed away yesterday. Nan was a well-loved member of Buffy fandom, and one of the best writers I've ever known. She will be sorely missed.

I'm stunned and speechless. I honestly don't have the words right now. The words I've written above don't even begin to do Nan justice. She was an amazing woman and someone who I was proud to call a friend.

Rest in peace, Nan.
