Over 40 years ago, Terry Fox was eighteen years old and he was first diagnosed with cancer.   Due to the nature of his cancer and the treatment available at the time, his right leg was amputated. Terry had a vision, he wanted a world without cancer and decided to run across the country to make a statement and collect funds. He embarked on a run aptly titled the ‘Marathon of Hope’ to raise funds for cancer research. Although he succumbed to the disease, his legacy lives on.
