Hello and thanks for visiting - Times are tough, I know. However, not as tough as some might have it. About 7 children die each day in the US from cancer. It is the #1 cause of death from disease in kids. One third of the children who are diagnosed with cancer will die. Sixty percent of those who survive will suffer long term side effects (brain damage, secondary cancers, infertility) as a result of their cancer treatment. The average age of a child diagnosed with cancer is 6 years. It pains me to have to convey such a grim picture but they are the facts. The good news is, we all can do something about it, together. I'm shaving my head once again in solidarity for my niece and for all the other kids that get dealt this ugly set of circumstances in order to perhaps one day find a cure. What i ask from you is to please donate whatever you can on my head so i can achieve my goal and make a difference for these kids. Many thanks and kind regards, Nick
