Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation Blog: “I’ve Got Your Back,” March 22, 2019

Please check out my daughter’s shirt. The little heart wheelchair shirt has been passed along first by two brothers, then to our son and daughter, and we will send it along to the child of another friend who is a parent living with a spinal cord injury.

Christopher and Dana Reeve Blog: “When Vacation Exceeds Expectation,” March 6, 2019

My family decided a few years ago, when our children were big enough to actually “do stuff”, that we would make a concerted effort to “do stuff” together, creating memorable experiences as opposed to buying presents at Christmas.

Christopher and Dana Reeve Blog, February 1, 2019: “When Anniversaries Come in the Form of Spinal Cord Injuries and Service Dogs”

I’ve written about my husband Geoff’s spinal cord injury anniversary on January 29 before, and in the world of Google, one would think I could track it down. No luck. But this year, the same week we honor his 24th year of being a T7-8 paraplegic and the work he’s done since sustaining that injury,… Continue reading Christopher and Dana Reeve Blog, February 1, 2019: “When Anniversaries Come in the Form of Spinal Cord Injuries and Service Dogs”
