I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research

I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research

I am shaving my head for the 6th time for the St. Baldrick's Foundation. As an original member of the 46 Mommas Shave for the Brave team in Los Angeles, 2010 was the start of my shaving journey. Since then, I have shaved with the team in Washington D.C., again in LA, San Antonio, Boston, and now this year in Kansas City. Why do I shave my head? It might seem extreme. Losing my daughter was extreme. An inoperable brain tumor invaded my 3 month old baby in August of 2006. After 8 months of treatment, we were told that there was nothing else we could do. My daughter died on June 9, 2007, just 2 weeks after her 1st birthday. I have sat through 9 funerals of children taken by cancer. THAT is extreme. I have chosen to repeatedly raise money for St. Baldrick's because the money goes directly to funding pediatric cancer research. Pediatric cancers are different than adult cancers. Children react differently than adults to treatment. For the children who survive, they face life-long complications from the very treatment that saved them. Cancer kills 7 children each and every day. Cancer took my daughter from me - I don't want that to be the outcome for the 46 families who today will hear "your child has cancer". Please donate to this great and trustworthy foundation. Research is expensive. Help the doctors and scientists who care about saving children.
