This is me and one o my home girls, Sadley she passed away…
“This is me and one o my home girls, Sadley she passed away not so long ago, she was very sweet hearted that we decided to do the worlds greatest shave together but she passed just before our we were ment to do it, before she passed we raised a total of $398. I had a choice after that. The point of shaving together was so we wouldnt feel alone looking the way we did. I could have gave the money back and kept my pride but I chose to shave my hair off and keep my promise. A promise to every one who donated that I would help people with cancer and shave my hair off. People still make fun of me. But I'm not ashamed to stand tall and proud because most people would have chosen their pride... I stood out from the crowed I chose to keep a promise”
