Story

I have decided to shave my hair off in order to raise money for cancer research. Cancer has surrounded my family for a number of years, my mum and gran have both had breast cancer and my mum has also had skin cancer, both lost there hair due to chemotherapy and I'd like to do this in order to try raise money to find a cure. 

the cure for cancer could be stuck inside the head of someone who cant afford education that is a very scary thought! why cant they just find it already? i hate the word cancer it scares me because it is unpredictable and you never know what will happen, people who have fought cancer and won inspire me, they have so much strength and determination and after they have finished fighting they don't stop. however for the people who don't win there fight this does not make them weak, and in no way did they give up! they are as strong as anyone and they are such an inspiration however they just didn't seem to be getting any better and now they are no longer suffering the pain. 

Stand Up To Cancer!
