The Time Has Come!

Although I will keep raising funds for Cancer Research UK until November, the date has been set for me to have all my hair chopped off: Wednesday 13 July!

There are a few reasons for choosing to have it done sooner rather than later.

1. I want the hair I donate to be as healthy and useable as possible, and right now it's in pretty good condition.

2. I'm going to Texas on 30 July and this means I can take my hair with me and when I see Erin we can send it off together. My mum had a hair cut and has hair to donate as well.

3. Have you ever been to Texas in July/August???? 100+ degrees Farenheit? My hair is so thick it's like wearing a woollen hat and it's so long it's as if I have a scarf on too!

I'm looking forward to getting over there to see my family, and while I'm there I'm going with Erin to see her oncologist. It will be wonderful to meet the people who helped to save my sister's life.

In the meantime, please keep donating to Cancer Research UK! Just because Erin is on the road to recovery doesn't mean that I've forgotten all the others who are still fighting for their lives.
