On this day 46 years ago, I saw Terry speak in Orillia at the Rotary Aquatheatre.
Terry talked about how he was just a regular guy, that he wasn't special, but he was determined to raise money for cancer research, and he was willing to take himself to his limits for his dream. Terry made me believe that we can do amazing things, that one person can make a difference, that determination, effort and a dream are enough.
Will you join us to raise funds for innovative cancer research through the The Terry Fox Foundation? Donate, fundraise or register for the annual Terry Fox Run in Orillia at https://run.terryfox.ca/Orillia
