Terry Fox!

Terry Fox inspired many people around the world and still does to this day. He lost his leg at the age of 18 and he still fought to raise money for cancer research. His dream was to run across Canada but stopped in Ontario when he found out that his cancer returned, but this time to his lungs. Terry ran 3,339 miles in just 143 days. Terry died on June 28, 1981. To this day every year most countries run for Terry to show how much we appreciate him and to raise money for cancer research. No one should have to go through what Terry Fox went through and in the end not to make it.
