My Brave the Shave

Admin if this is not allowed to be posted here please delete it.
On the 8th April I am going to brave the shave for cancer research, for everyone who has had cancer or knows anyone who has had it or has it now, i have had relatives and friends with cancer some survived some didn't, i recently lost a dear friend who had cancer, I am going to be completely bald for all the people and children who have had cancer and been bald because of chemo, who get bullied for their looks, to show those bullies that these people are still beautiful and also unique, i will also be getting a spider web tattooed on my scalp a couple of days later, to show that anything is possible even though my hair will grow back.

My wife went through cancer and lost of her hair as the result of her chemo treatments. She detests others who shave their head in support of cancer. She calls it a great emotional nothing burger. She was never afraid of losing her hair. She was very alarmed that she might not be here to see her grandkids graduate high school. Fortunately she has been cancer free for the last 12 years.

@thedreamer1975 And that has what to do with others virtue signalling?

@hippyjoe1955 kinda makes it sound like what I'm doing is a bad thing.

@thedreamer1975 My wife would say you are mocking her and her cancer. You don't have the disease therefore you should find a better way to show your support for cancer sufferers. When she was going through cancer treatments our grandsons bought her a little Mini Mouse stuffed animal. She took it with her for every cancer treatment. It is now sitting very prominently on the shelf in the bedroom. Her cousin made her a quilt. It is across the foot of our bed. When she was at a low spot one of the crew gave her some sour candies. She now loves sour candies and the one who gave it to her has a special place in her heart. There are lots of tangible things that can be done to support a person going through cancer.
