Ok so if you know me you know that I am no stranger to a bald head! My name is Jacob AKA The Leukemia Slayer. I was diagnosed with high risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia on December 2, 2010 when I was nine years old. I lost my hair during treatment a few times and quickly found out that a head gets pretty cold without hair! Leukemia treatment is long, and I am proud to say I finished my treatment on March 22, 2014.  When my oncologists at Duke told me they were having a St Baldrick's shave for childhood cancer just a couple of days before my one year off treatment anniversary, I said count me in! Going bald for childhood cancer research is the perfect way to celebrate my big day! I know my donation goal of $1206.00 seems kinda random, but it has special meaning to me. I was in treatment for 1206 days, so I would like to raise one dollar for each day I was in treatment!   Childhood cancer research is sadly underfunded and that is why so many families that are affected by childhood cancer do fundraising to help find a cure. Every dollar makes a difference for all the kids who have cancer, who had cancer and who will have cancer in the future.
