When Christopher Reeve was
paralyzed in a riding
accident on May 27, 1995,
letters poured in from
around the world, some
addressed only to "Superman,
USA." It was an astonishing
demonstration of sympathy
and support for a man who
had become an American icon.
In Care Packages,
Dana Reeve, Christopher's
wife, has collected some of
the most unforgettable
letters and gifts that her
family received.
With an
introduction to each chapter
by Dana Reeve, it is also
the story of a marriage and
a family facing the ultimate
test--from the fear of the
emergency room to the long,
hard days of rehab to the
bittersweet moments of a
wedding anniversary--and
reaffirming their commitment
in a thousand new ways. |
