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

I'm having my head shaved in honor of my son Evan who will be celebrating his 5th year post second transplant on March 20. Evan was diagnosed the day before his 11th birthday with PH+ Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and underwent months of chemotherapy and two stem cell transplants. He has been in remission since his second transplant on March 20, 2007. I am shaving my head to stand in solidarity with kids fighting cancer, but more importantly, to raise money to find cures. Please support me with a donation to the St. Baldrick's Foundation. This volunteer-driven charity funds more in childhood cancer research grants than any organization except the U.S. government. Your gift will give hope to infants, children, teens and young adults fighting childhood cancers. So when I ask for your support, I'm really asking you to support these kids. Thank you!
