Terry Fox Run - Never Give Up on a Dream

Tribute music video to Terry Fox who attempted to run across Canada on one leg, a victim of cancer. Terry died before completing his run.

In June 1981, Terry developed pneumonia, and on June 27, he went into a coma. He died on the 28th at 4:35 a.m., which was his favourite hour of running, a year after his legendary run, and exactly one month shy of his twenty-third birthday.

Song is by Rod Stewart, which was written and recorded as a tribute to Terry. Videos obtained from CBC web archives. Images of cancer patients obtained through Google image searches
