Never Give Up

by Judy Cline

Overview

The story of a genuine Canadian heroine.

“I remember Eleanor Mills as a determined woman with osteoporosis who wanted to make a difference… This inspirational woman demonstrated to others that osteoporosis need not be a crippling condition that prevents a person from doing what they want to do. For me, as a physician, Eleanor Mills provides a concrete story of what can be accomplished by those with osteoporosis. She has been an inspiration to many and will continue to have an influence on others as long as her story continues to be told.” Dr. Jonathan (Rick) Adachi

This is her story. At 79, bent like an inverted L, she was the spark plug for walks in 130 communities from Victoria to St. John’s. The increased awareness after those walks made the advances in diagnosis and treatment we have today possible.

About the Author

I am a retired physiotherapist, with a passion for words and for people and their quirks. Although I have done some travelling, my favourite way to visit other places is through books. My book choices are somewhat catholic although mysteries might be my absolute favourite. The book "Never Give Up" was four years in the researching and writing. It is the story of Eleanor Mills, a gutsy 79-year-old Canadian woman who was the sparkplug for The Boney Express. She walked in 130 communities across Canada to tell everyone she met that osteoporosis, which had turned her into a severely "bent lady", leaning over her walker, did not mean the end to an active life. Her life expressed her motto of "Never Give Up."
