RE: 40-Year Anniversary of Terry Fox's Marathon of Hope
There was a book in the waiting room to accompany the leg. It was very interesting to look at photographs of his life...a time where Canada felt more real and Canadian. In the book there were pictures of his diet, and it was definitely not helping the cancer. It was a fatty diet rich in sausages, cheese, butter, and other animal products. But it was osteosarcoma, not colon cancer, after all.
He did the best he could with the knowledge at the time. But if he has used cannabis and changed his diet, he might still be around today, with his leg even.
Very cool additional clip! Thanks for this post, @MediKatie.
