I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research with: Adrian's Bald Beauties and Beasties.

I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research with: Adrian's Bald Beauties and Beasties.

This is my third year being a shavee. This year my son Adrian will not be here. I miss him so much. The first year he said "mom you don't have to shave for me..." but when it was all done he was thankful I did and it meant a lot to him. Adrian fought hard for three years and passed away on July 12th 2014 from his cancer. Wilms tumor is 90% curable and yet he still died. This is why we need research money to go right to Childhood cancers. Adult cancers get 96% of the research money only 4% goes for childhood cancers if by shaving my head I can get more money into the researchers hands I will do it. I'm shaving my head to raise money for childhood cancer research! Did you know that kids' cancers are different from adult cancers? It's true. And childhood cancer research is extremely underfunded. So I decided to do something about it by raising money for cures. Now I need your help! Will you make a donation? Every dollar makes a difference for the thousands of infants, children, teens, and young adults fighting childhood cancers.
