Dana Reeve quotes:

Just when you think you're coming out and you think, 'OK, I see the light at the end of the tunnel,' then I got this diagnosis.

When you least feel like it, do something for someone else. You forget about your own situation. It gives you a purpose, as opposed being sorrowful and lonely.

Some of the choices in life will choose you. How you face those choices, these turns in the road, with what kind of attitude, more than the choices themselves, is what will define the context of your life.

It is so important as a caregiver not to become so enmeshed in the role that you lose yourself. It's neither good for you nor your loved one.

Be brave. Be open-minded. Be kind. Be forgiving. Be generous. Be optimistic. Be grateful for the many unexpected lessons you will learn. Find the joy inside the hardship. It's there. I assure you. And, too, be open to inspiration from unlikely sources.

I learned a long time ago life just isn't fair, so you better stop expecting it to be.

You have to celebrate the gifts because life is so hard and I think once you realize life's gonna be hard, the good stuff really comes forward.

We have become accustomed to living our life with joy amidst pain and challenges.

Most of the time I think we're really pretty positive and optimistic, and we're so lucky to have the life that we have and had with him.
