Top 10 reasons I am shaving my head for childhood cancer research:
(Not in any particular order)
#10 I was encouraged to do it last year, but needed some time to think about it!
#9 I wanted to see if I could rock the “Jamie Lee Curtis look” before returning to my authentic hair color (Black Cherry), besides my hair is always kept short and grows really fast!
#8 I can donate the money I save on haircuts over the next few months!
#7 My sister really wants to do it but she’s too chicken, so I’m letting her shave my head instead!
#6 I was recently inspired by a story about a teacher and a student named Courtney!
#5 My life has been touched by the tragedy of cancer as I have lost some special people over the past several years!
#4 I work at St. Louis Children’s Hospital and see the kids with cancer and their families. I have recently begun asking the families and the kids about their journey. I am extremely humbled by the strength and challenges they face. I was especially touched by a mother who shaved her head when her own daughter was undergoing chemotherapy!
#3 I am inspired by the work at Seeds of Happiness (SOH) and am honored to join them this year in their fundraising efforts ~ all because of a wonderful boy named Dawson!
#2 I want to raise donations for childhood cancer research. There are way too many cancers out there that need cures!
#1 CANCER SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
