Drudge is reporting that Christopher Reeve died. Is there any confirmation of this?
I just heard this from a friend on aim. Nothing on google news yet though. Let’s really really hope it’s not true. I want him to walk again.
What is aim?
AOL Instant Messaging.
Seemed he was doing okay less than a week ago:

Just posted to the other Reeve site: FoxNews just broke in regular programming and confirmed that he has died.
More information in: Apparently he had a cardiac arrest, fell into a coma and died. Sounds like it happened within the last few days.
Since my OP is asked and answered this can be closed.
ABC News just reported it on the network.
Sad news indeed.
Here’s the official press release.
this is so sad.
I’m completely shocked.
To face such a monumental adversity with his unrelenting courage and optimism, Mr. Reeves was a great hero to me. Truly, a Superman.
Can’t say I’m entirely shocked … it is very difficult to keep a high-level quadraplegic alive long term. I think he lived longer than most people with his sort of injury.
None of which removes the sadness. The loss of anyone is tragic.
Yes.

There must have been an attempt to restart his heart following the cardiac arrest and a coma resulted. Coma not likely following cardiac arrest otherwise.
