Story

In November last year my son was taken into hospital and underwent a series of tests which in December we found out to be Hodgkins Lymphoma. He started a immediate course of chemotherapy and unfortunately lost his hair. 

Threw this time his big sister Louise would put her hair over his head and tell him not to worry she would give him her hair which John would reply I dont want your hair its too long and i will look like a girl. Boys for ya.

During Johns chemo treatments Louise would often come and see little girls running around or sitting getting chemo and they too wouldnt have any hair, so Louise decided that she would love to donate her hair to help make a wig for a little girl who needs it. Louise has waist length hair and she is nearly 15yrs old and HUGE thing for a teenager to do but Louise loves her little brother and wants to be able to give something back to help another little girl feel pretty and beautiful with a new wig. 

Please give as much as you can to this worthy cause because with a little help we can all give something back and maybe put a smile on a little girl/boys face while they go threw this hard time of fighting cancer.
