    God bless ya Terry I'll see you again some day. I was in grade 6 when our teacher pulled the fire alarm. She said Terry Fox is comming up the road everyone to the fence. We all lined up against the fence as he walked by. Bras d'Or School 5 miles from the NFLD ferry.

    I think this is truly one of the greatest Canadians of all time,you probably don't understand how far he ran,he pretty much ran a marathon a day with 1 leg from 4:00 am to 6:00 pm every day and he made it all the way to thunder bay when he was forced to stop he had run about 5700 km and he was sadly forced to stop because his cancer spread to his lungs,the only reason he did it is to make sure no none else felt his pain,one day he saw a 10 year old boy who lost his leg and thought he shouldn't have gone through that pain at his age.before terry died the one thing he wished is that the marathon of hope continued. Some one like this is really rare in this world and sadly he had to die and I hope he inspired you to make a change,he certainly inspired me.

    He ran even tho his stump was blistered, bleeding, aching, ulcered. He kept putting that leg on every day even tho it hurt like hell. Even tho his chest was hurting with cancer - tho he didn't know why it hurt yet. This is a hero. Someone who sticks with the goal even thru the pain.

    I was 10 in 1980 when Terry ran through my hometown of Aurora.
    The iconic photo of him where he stopped with the cop car behind him. My dad was driving.
    I'll never forget what Terry said, from his stretcher..."the cancer has spread. It's in my lungs now. I'll come back and fish if I can"
    Two days ago I was told I have lung cancer, it's spread. How ironic.
    I'll finish for you if I can, Terry!!

    To all the dislikers Terry Fox is a hero he ran for cancer.
    Heres some facts about Terry:
    He was born in BC
    He ran when he had cancer
    He learnt he had cancer at the age of 18 and passed away close to 23

    To me Terry is much more than someone who helped raise all that money for cancer research. We remember Terry for his beautiful spirit and determination. Ironically, perhaps, it took cancer for his spirit to truly shine, or to bring out the best in Terry.

    We did a Terry Fox walk in elementary school, we did it up until grade 6. We never did it again once we got into junior high and high school. The best part was fist pumping on the sidewalk when a mac truck drove by so they would honk their horn, sometimes they let us chaperone the younger kids when they do it

I don't remember which Documentary it was an old one, but it started with a dramatization reenacting the first steps Terry took across the road, it was in slow motion while this song played.

    If Terry didn't die, I wonder what his route would have been like.

      I probably would imagine Terry running by Peter's Drive-In here in Calgary sometime around mid to late 1981 in an alternate timeline where he didn't die. He'd most likely reach Vancouver in I'd say the summer of '82.
