I shaved to raise money for childhood cancer research

Thank you for checking out my St. Baldrick's Day webpage! On March 22nd I will celebrate St. Patrick's Day by going bald, having my head shaven at Finn McCool's Irish Pub in solidarity with the brave children who battle cancer every day, and to raise money for childhood cancer research so no child has to fight it again. I hope you'll support me with a donation, by spreading the word, or just by coming by Finn's to show your encouragement. Cancer has affected my life in many ways. Both of my parents, all four grandparents, my aunt, and my wife's stepmother have all fought cancer at various times. My mother has also worked tirelessly to treat childhood cancer as a pediatric oncologist for many years. When I was younger I would sometimes meet my mom's patients, and they always amazed me with their optimism, courage, and strength. Today these little patients still inspire me, and I'm honored to contribute in a small way to their cause. This year, I have decided to fundraise in honor of Daniel Wedge of Metairie LA, a courageous 3 year old who is battling acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). I don't know Daniel, but I learned about him on the St. Baldrick's web site and was inspired by his story of survival. You can read his story too - just click the link below. You can also use the links on this page to make a donation or see my before and, soon, my after pictures. As usual, I'll be taking suggestions for what to do with the beard. Email me your vote when you donate. Thank you very much for your support. Together we can help find a cure for this disease. I hope to see all of you at Finn McCool's on the 22nd! Sincerely, Will
