1) Their son was gorgeous looking just like Reeves. 2) the youngest talking about the quiet moments of safety, happiness, etc, resonated with me as my mother is gone, too 3) the story of Reeves still brings tears to my eyes.
I remember when Dana died of cancer just 18 months after her husband. Will became an orphan at just 13. He and I are the same age. I can't imagine going through something so devastating at such a young age.
Still just as heartbreaking to hear about as it was when the accident happened. What a wonderful family......all of you should be proud of yourselves and each other for showing such grace, loyalty, compassion, caring and love...... more young men and women should be like you....
@@opticscolossalandepicvideo4879 How rude of you. And you’re wrong. Robin Williams had “dementia with Lewy bodies” which was what led to his death. Get it right. 🤫
Such Love Even In Profound Grief.... The Reeve Family Is Such An Inspiration... My Youngest Daughter Became A Quadriplegic Herself Due To A Car Accident.... As Dark As It Can Get, There Is Always Some Light.... Thank You....
Sorely missed still! Christopher Reeve was a wonderful actor, human being! God bless his children, give them strength to carry on the goodness he fostered out of his tragic accident.😢❤
Saw them at Jiminy Peak in the ski rental area soon after SuperMan came out. I wanted so badly to go up to say something to Chris, but they were just a happy looking family that didn't want any attention. Very proud of myself that I left them alone that night. It was at Friday night skiing under the lights and my first time on skis! Surreal for sure.
Christopher reeve was one of my dad’s customers for sails for his sailboat. I was lucky to meet him a few times. He was such an amazing person. His legacy will live forever
What an inspirational story! Diane, thank you for sharing the beautiful story of an extraordinary American family filled with love and the sacrifice of Mrs. Reeve who had to endure her daily life's challenges to provide care for her husband, the superhero figure. I truly think that Mrs. Reeve was the real superhero herself. Through her actions, she shows real love, loyalty and dignity for her life partner. Thank you, ABC for this clip. They really meant for each other. I looked up knowing the couple passed away only 2yrs apart from each other about 20yrs ago. Wow. Time flies.
Wow...what a warm and deeply touching story. Have always loved Christopher, and have only heard wonderful stories about Dana...she was an angel on this earth, and they were SO lucky to have found each other. God bless them both as they travel through heaven's highway together again.
I still remember when I saw the movie “the Superman” (1978) for the first time on TV when I was a kid, around the age of 9 or 10. Not only did I love the movie, I thought Christopher Reeve was the most handsome man in the world. But it wasn’t just his looks or acting. Somehow I could feel that he was a decent human, as young as I was. I became an instant fan. I saw the sequels of the Superman and loved them all, forget the reviews. Fast forward to the 90s, I was in high school when the news of his accident and paralysis came. I remember that day as well to this day, as it was such a shock and I felt heartbroken. In the 2000s, I saw Dana Reeve in quite a few interviews on TV she did then to help raise awareness for her husband’s cause with spinal cord injuries. I was amazed by the bright and positive energy she exuded when she would talk. When she died shortly after, I couldn’t believe it, and my heart went to their son Will, that I knew was still a teenager, having followed the Reeve family’s story since the 90’s. Over the past nearly two decades I would sometimes rewatch the Superman films and other works by Christopher Reeve, and when I did I always thought of his family and prayed and hoped they were doing ok. I was waiting for a documentary like this. It’s still heartbreaking, what happened to both Christopher and Dana, but however bittersweet, it is touching to see and hear how the three siblings have supported one other and I’m so glad Will had his two older half siblings to be his rock after both his parents tragically passed. My prayers and heart will continue to go to them all. The film is not being shown where I live currently so I hope that I get to see it when it becomes available for streaming. I also hope many people can get to see it and be inspired by their story of resilience, strength, hope, and love ❤️
Will is his spitting image. Was such a tragic accident and I can’t imagine the toll it took on all of them. You can really tell how close they were and then to have their mother pass just shortly after. So sad.
Wow, Mrs. Reeves really did a fantastic job keeping the family together in "normalcy" after Christopher Reeve's accident. What a beautiful family. I loved the SuperMan movie with Christopher Reeves. And, wow, Christopher's square jaw God bless the Reeves family. Gosh, I wanna date that Will Reeves.
Christopher had the same injuries as my 3and half year niece. Injuries in a car accident. She lived 10 months after the accident. It was sad to watch and remember. RIP Christopher and Dana. God bless their children.
Will is definitely most like his Dad, he has his modesty, his positivity and strength as well as looks. He is the embodiment of his parents and all they did for him through such a tragic time. They would be so proud of him, of all of them.
Chris and Dana were both so accomplished. Their real legacy though is their children, who have their strength and their love for each other, their family and friends. ❤️🇨🇦🙏
Christopher Reeve was such a talented actor! Watching him on screen was something special. One of the few actors in the mainstream Hollywood who never had any kind of drama surrounding his career. It’s so sad how these days we don’t have actors who both talented and humble and Christopher Reeve was. For me he will always be THE SUPERMAN! He may no longer be alive but his films and Legacy will live on and I hope the future generation won’t ever forget him. He was gone too soon, when the world needed Superman the most he was called to go home to a better place. ❤
That was my superman growing up. The tragedy one that shocked us all. Will is such a great legacy of his parents. The older sibilings, loving, caring family. Will, the spitting image of Christopher reeve
No better journalist alive than Diane Sawyer. I’m glad they chose to tell their story to her. She is the epitome of professionalism and humanity. Interview is beautifully done, hard to get through without crying.
Man that tore at my heart strings, what Beautiful Sons and Daughter Christopher has. Will looks so much like both Christopher and Dana. Handsome man. He has Christopher's smile. Matt and Alexandra also Beautiful and Handsome. Such Sweet kind souls. I will never forget hearing about Christopher's Accident, how devastating that was, then his death was so Sad. Then for will to lose Dana as well. Just broke my heart. But they all stuck together. Just a Beautiful Great Family.
I grew up with Christopher Reeve...SUPERMAN was the coolest back in the day! I thought William looked familiar on ABCnews (Gma) I miss your Dad very devastating towards the end of his GREAT Legacy. Never Forget Christopher ❤
Dana Reeve , such a special, dynamic human.. Chris was so Lucky.. and I mean that. for them to have found eachother was a Miracle. the strength in setting the tone of their new Reality, making sure to keep Alive..the LOVE,JOY, the HOPE . whilst dealing with her own grief. what a Lovely Family..Bless 🙏 💐
Superman in a wheelchair is still a hard thing to comprehend. And then for Dana to go so soon after just seemed the ultimate unfairness, for the kids and for her; it's impossible to not be deeply affected by this family's story.
♥Beautiful family!! Beautiful children, who love each other so much, it's a wonderful testament to their mom and dad, and the values they taught to the kids! Dana was an example of a pure, beautiful soul, and human beautiful inside and out! Among today's shallowness and narcissism, and celebs who only care about fame & money, people like Christopher & Dana shine as the true essence of real, unbreakable love and humanity! So many people yearn and search for this kind of love today: honest, selfless, undefeated, strong, and yet this kind of love is almost nowhere to be found nowadays! ♥

@@Geeksmithing Absolutely correct. 😄
Yes he's a double 👏👏👏👏
Ah same..Tears always. I've read the Christopher's book, I remember every detail he shared.
What a strong mom she was, the lessons she taught her children through all of it is amazing.
I wish my own mother would have been stronger. We needed her!
😢
I remember when Dana died of cancer just 18 months after her husband. Will became an orphan at just 13. He and I are the same age. I can't imagine going through something so devastating at such a young age.
He looks exactly like him ❤ beautiful family and mother 🌹
Touching story! It's nice to see all three Reeve children together for this project & interview. ❤

Oh Will, so handsome and very vulnerable here-he is the baby in the family after all. I just want to hug him.
After all these years, Christopher Reeves is still in our hearts and loved💕❤️💕What a lovely and supportive family.
*Reeve.
Still just as heartbreaking to hear about as it was when the accident happened. What a wonderful family......all of you should be proud of yourselves and each other for showing such grace, loyalty, compassion, caring and love...... more young men and women should be like you....
I have tears😢😢. Their parents would be so proud. Dana's death was a shock also.
Chris Reeves was special, he and his beloved Robin Williams are shining. The loss of their mother was a real 1-2 punch. Will is a beautiful soul.
Robin Williams killed himself

@@ahill4642
Are you for real????
@@ahill4642Well yeah, Lewy Body Dementia is what drove him to suicide, but it was still a suicide.
Dana was his Angel that follows him. I love seeing/following Will on this show. I needed a good cry today
Rest in peace Christopher Reeves 1952-2004 🕊️🕊️🕊️

THIS IS DANA REEVES STORY. . . . SHE IS A TRUE HERO. . . .CHRIS AND DANA REST IN PEACE. .
Dana and Christopher raised some great human beings. he will always be the one and only superman!
He is Superman junior. Striking resemblance. How resilient can one be. I don’t know how I could. ❤
Just this short clip has me in tears so I can only imagine how seeing the whole film will affect me but I absolutely cannot wait to see it.♥
Such Love Even In Profound Grief.... The Reeve Family Is Such An Inspiration... My Youngest Daughter Became A Quadriplegic Herself Due To A Car Accident.... As Dark As It Can Get, There Is Always Some Light.... Thank You....
