Man, can't this family get a break?

CNN-Dana Reeves says she has lung cancer (http://www.cnn.com/2005/SHOWBIZ/Movies/08/09/danareeve.cancer.ap/index.html)

I can't imagine how scary this must be for her, as their son is only 13 years old. :(

Oh man. That is so sad. I hope she'll be able to make a full recovery.

Wow. What awful news. I pray she recovers so their son will not be left without any parents. :(

This is so heartbreaking.

[IrisHope]

What else can this family go through. :(

Just saw this (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/08/09/AR2005080900496.html) . I am stunned. Where do I go to register a protest with the universe? How much more is this woman supposed to take?

There's already a thread about this on the news forum, so I'm going to move your thread there and merge them. :)

What terrible, terrible news. I would have thought they'd already had their share of bad luck. :(

My sister just informed me of this. I feel awful for her and her family. I hope she recovers. :(

This is totally off topic, but I *love* your little girl's name. :D

Did anybody see her on Oprah? She is such a beautiful person, inside and out. She had me in tears when they shared part of what she read at Chris's funeral. How devastating for her!

[islandgirlsj]

Oh my gosh, that just breaks my heart thinking of her and her family!

[MrsSmith]

That is so sad. I really do feel for the son.

i have actually met her once several years ago at a birthday party for one of my campers. she is such a beautiful person. i found it amazing that she could be so wonderful and show such joy for her son despite the struggles she had with her husband. she radiated warmth and love.
