Shaving my head

Post by TillyGalore » January 5th, 2014, 3:56 pm

Since I can't run the Boston marathon, or any other race at this point, to raise money for cancer research, I have signed up to shave my head on March 1st to raise money for pediatric cancer research. I am also doing this because as many of you know, Bostondevil's son has a brain tumor and has fought courageously throughout this ordeal. Ronnie is my hero and I want to honor him as well as raise money.

I hope you will make a donation, size does not matter, to this special cause. And yes, I will post an after photo on March 1st. You can visit my St. Baldrick's web page if you would like to make a donation http://www.stbaldricks.org/participants ... 62123/2014.

Girlfriend!!!! It's JANUARY!!!!!!!. :twitch: Wouldn't it be more prudent to wait for warmer weather? I guess brain tumors don't care what the season is, though! Count me in on your campaign. I'll be in touch! Love and tumor kicking vibes to Lisa and her son! Love, Ima

The event is March 1st. I figure it'll warm up by then or I'll have to buy some really cute knitted hats.

The Pub next door to the store where I'm working part time does that every year. The owner is a survivor. Where are you getting your head shaved? :D AW.

PS. I'll send in a donation in your name.
