Off with her hair!

By Sabena Hall

I’m doing it for cancer!

I’m challenging myself to shave my hair to support Cancer Council in their mission for a cancer free future!

Because 1 in 2 Australians (they are alarming statistics!) will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime, I’m losing my locks to raise funds and show my support.  

Why else am I doing this? I know so many friends and colleagues touched by cancer and, on a more personal note, my immediate family are currently faced with big challenges - my father (Darryl) passed in June this year with a brain tumour diagnosed 6 weeks earlier (Grade 4, Glioblastoma Multiforme Wildtype), my Mum (Brigitte) has been diagnosed earlier this year with Stage 3 Inflammatory Breast Cancer and my sister (Tammy) has Stage 4 EGFR Exon 19 deletion, non-smokers lung cancer. 

Please sponsor me to support cancer research and provide vital services for Australians living with cancer.

Thank you for your generous donation. Together, we can free the future from cancer.

I’ve done it!

Monday 10th Nov
Well, what an incredible experience & feeling! The lovely Amy at Hairhouse at Riverlink (Ipswich) was great, kept me talking while she shaved away! Had beautiful family & friends there to support me & before I knew it, it was done!

Quite a few people have said I’m brave for doing it but I had a choice which many going through treatment don’t so they’re the brave ones.

Scroll down for pics! 

Thank you truly for the support you’ve given xo

Today’s the day!
