Dana Reeve

Deepak Chopra

It is very sad that she died. The whole Chris Reeve thing is/was tragic and this is like some final coda in a big long sick joke.

The entire round-up of usual suspects was on Larry King: Deepak Chopra, Marianne Williamson, Maya Angelou, etc. I wonder if they asked Joan Didion or if she's too New York intellectual.

Anyway, I was insulted because first Chopra started saying that he can't help thinking that "Dana and Chris" were so connected that when she lost him her body reacted. In other words, he was suggesting that her loss gave her cancer. What an idiot.

Then, Williamson said something like, "it's sad but also joyful because the universe is righted and now they are together."

There's nothing joyful about this. A boy has no parents because they are both dead. End of story. Bad things happen all the time and hopefully this kid has had his quota of bad things for the rest of his life.
