In 2006 my twin brother Ben was diagnosed with osteosarcoma I didn't know what that was. All I knew was that he had cancer in his arm bone. The first time we didn't sleep in the same room was when he went into the hospital to get chemotherapy. I have many great memories of things we did when he had cancer. One of them was when my father and I shaved our heads for the very first time ion 2007 while Ben was receiving chemotherapy. We surprised him. When he saw me he laughed. He had me walk around the floor pushing his IV pole so he could show his nurses and other people my shaved head. In 2009 when we were 9 years old Ben died. I have shaved my head every year since then. Last year my hair was dyed green. I miss Ben. I don't want other kids to go through what Ben did. I don't want other kids to lose their brothers and sisters to cancer. Please help me raise money for St. Baldrick's. Every dollar makes a difference.
