I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research with: Team Teddy

My brother Teddy got sick in November of 2009. The doctors found out that he had a tumor in his chest and for the next couple of months he got chemotherapy that they hoped would help shrink the tumor. The chemo made him sick and made him lose his hair and it really didn't help him. He had two operations and then 7 weeks of radiation in Boston, which meant our family was apart a lot. He started to feel better but then more tumors grew and he spent all summer in the hospital. He died on August 16, 2010, at the age of 9 1/2. For the 15th year in a row I'm shaving my head to raise money for St. Baldrick's so that new and better types of chemo can be discovered and so that other kids might have a better chance than Teddy did. Please support me and help find a cure for cancer.
