Two years ago my mother in law lost her fight with pancreatic cancer. So after having my hair long for 7 years I’ve decided to shave it off on the anniversary of her death and raise money so that hopefully one day others don’t have to go through the same thing 
For those that have been telling me to cut the hair make sure you dig deep in those pockets!
Cancer sucks
