Everyday I am thankful that my aunt, Annabelle, is still with my family and me today. She has been cancer free for the past few years (knock on wood) and I pray that it will never return.
As she was receiving treatment, I prayed to God that she would survive this fight and that she wouldn't be in much pain. And in turn I promised Him I would donate my hair every year to show how thankful I am to even have an aunt like her. She is like a mother to me.
I also have other family members who I've lost due to various types of cancer- they will be forever in my heart. Donating my hair gives me an opportunity to honor each of them.
I think about those who have been through or is going through this process and I've always wanted to find a way to help them. So, I have a 3 in 1 shot with showing my thankfulness, honoring those I miss and love, and helping others by giving about 12 inches of my hair every year.
