Why am I having my head shaved?
I know what it is to rely on others, to depend on their support when our family had no where else to turn. The War Resister's Support Campaign has taught me what it is to stand in solidarity with others. I know what it feels like to want desparately to give back to those who have supported me and so I choose to help Narece give back during her time of need.
I am doing it to teach my kids what it is to love one another. I want them to know that it is good to give of themselves to help someone in need and that we are not more important than anyone else.
Mainly I am doing this to support a family who must be going through the hardest time of their lives. To say someone cares about you and your stuggle. To be there in their time of need.
Lastly to honor the memory of all my loved ones who have had cancer and the struggle to get well.
(standard message to follow) To stand in solidarity with kids fighting cancer, who typically lose their hair during treatment. More importantly, I'm doing it to raise funds for childhood cancer research! Worldwide, more than 160,000 children are diagnosed with cancer each year. The St. Baldrick's Foundation partners with organizations around the world to fund childhood cancer research. We must all do everything we can to give kids a better chance for a cure.
