My WGS pack has arrived

So to go with my vibrant coloured hair I have an Official Receipt Book and a donation box.

Donation box

Plus, I have organised to have the Shave done at Girl Child’s School Assembly on 11 March 2011.  Another parent from school will be having their head shaved as well so thankfully I won’t be sitting up on stage by myself .

Some very generous people have already sponsored me for $342.00!  Plus people have offered to do blog posts on my hair and the Great Shave.  So to all of you I say a huge Thank you!

I was having coffee this morning with my friend W.  Her dad was diagnosed with Leukaemia in April 2010 and was basically given 12 months to live.  He became part of a trial for a new drug and all signs are positive.  There is a chance that he may go into remission.  And that my friends, is  a huge reason why I’m doing this.  Also to remember Baby T and Miss S, and to because Dr T is currently going through treatment.

With many people staring at my multi-coloured hair, I hope that it will start a conversation about why I’ve done it and why I will be shaving my head.  In the future, perhaps less people be colouring and shaving in memory of people who have died.  I’m sure it will be a long time coming but every little bit helps.

So once again, here is my Profile Page.  You can sponsor me by clicking the link.

Yay for World's Greatest Shave! I'm supporting my BFF's husband who is shaving his beard off - it doesn't sound very impressive at first but you have to keep in mind he hasn't been without it for about 15 years and it's currently 7 inches long!!!
I once died my hair bright pink - but I didn't do it for charity, I just thought I was cool :P I wonder if I can retrospectively ask my friends for cash for a good cause?
Thanks for linking up today, hope to see you back next Friday.
