My name is SHAWN,
On July 20,2002 was in a car rec. I broke my back at the T9 veritably, and now I'm paralyzed from the wisest down. When I first can out of my coma all that I could think about or ask for was to kill me. Than when I read about how Mr. reeves had gone through somewhat the same thing I was going through. So than I started to think if he had the power, heart, and desertion. Maybe I could do it to.
Most of all my family was there through all of it from the first second to this day.
Thank you MR. Reeves I just want to thank you for sharing his story.

I'm normally not a huge fan of biographies or historical novels simply because I find it hard to keep straight all the details, dates, and people involved. I know that a diligent author will not omit important facts, so I tend to avoid the genre. I also avoid books about disabilities because I have one, and find most authors either take on a "pity me" or a "pretend I am completely normal" attitude when the truth of living with a disability is somewhere in the middle.
However, I was drawn to this book by Reeve's own writing style. I read an exceprt of his newest book in a magazine, and decided to purchase "Still Me". I'm glad I did- I *really* enjoyed this book. Reeve has a remarkable writing style- he managed to seamlessly layer events from his entire life along with descriptions of his life post-injury and scientific information in every chapter. Even though the book continually shifted focus and timeframe, it was not a struggle to keep up with all the details.
I have his next book ("Nothing is Impossible") on hold at the library, and can't wait to continue reading about Reeve's life. His writing style is open, honest, and warm all at once. He writes about his condition, and both his acceptance and rejection of it, with honesty and dignity. It's so refreshing to read about someone who is not afraid to be angry and proud about their situation. I truly hope that he is able to step out of his chair at some point in time, but even if he does not, he is truly a Superman in every respect of the word.

I listened to this book during my 45 minute commute
from Fond du Lac to Sheboygan and back for several days.
I was captivated with Reeve's courage. It's books
like this that we need so badly during these very tense days in our world. My son is severely autistic and Chris helped me come to terms with our family's crisis and limitations. I am writing a book about my son Stephen and am listing Chris as one of my
inspirations. It's not necessarily what happens to us in life, but how we react to it...that is what is important and what will
be remembered by others. Bravo Chris!!

Unlike about any other American I did not care for any of the Supermans in the trilogy that much, so when Christopher Reeves got seirouly hurt, I did not pay as close of attention as hundreds of the fans did to the facts surounding the unfortunate, and very unexpected tragedy that happend to Christopher Reeves. However when Christopher Reeves released his first popular book "Still Me" I just thought it would be cool to know what exatly happend to Christopher Reeves on that fatful day of the horse accident that broke Mr. Reeves neck.
This book gave me all of the facts that I was curious about and then some. The book made me think differently about life. Its certainly one of the most profound pieces of reading I have come across before.
Only Christopher Reeve could have explained his story has good as this book was. Buy it.

I bought this books since I was simply interested in Christopher Reeve's fate. I knew him from his films when he was still healthy, then I heard about his accident and, then, I saw his performance at the Oscar's Night some years ago. This impressed me very much so that I wanted to know more. Well, and what I got to know was a person who has my deepest sympathy and admiration. The way he describes his own story is very honest, full of emotions but also very clear like a report. He reflects all part of his former and current life with all the nuances he experienced it. I'm full of respect for Christopher Reeve who had this incredible power of belief to find back into life. I cannot imagine that I had this power, I hope I'll never need it, but his book even helps to overcome some daily trouble, to gain a realistic perpective when the world seems to be against me. I wish Mr. Reeve all the best for his future and hope so much that the science will increase his chances to recover more and more.
