So why? In the last year alone six people we know have died from cancer, some very suddenly some after a long fight.
My cousin is still suffering with the after effects of his cancer and there are still so many people we know fighting every day.
This decision has been a tough one, I have never had my hair shorter than a bob before so it is a big step. But I wanted to make a statement in my stand against cancer, not just for those we have lost, but those that are still fighting and in the hope we may one day find a cure.
During the next two months, I intend to raise as much awareness as I can of the different cancers that have affected those lives and how silent they can be.
So in the mean time I will be posting pictures of my hair, hopefully it will be the required length by the 7th September.
I am off to see Andrew at Sutherland and Barnett tomorrow to discuss what we need to think about, how we are going to cut it etc tomorrow so will hopefully have a better idea of whether we can still do it on the 7th September tomorrow.
If you have a moment and a few pounds to spare I would be so grateful if you could pop on over to my Just Giving page, you can see a picture of me looking daft and read my story and who I am doing it for.
A great cause and a wonderful thing to do my dear x
