    Where did I ever say that it wasnt good? Im glad there are people out there that will donate to cancer research and things. Im glad you are doing stuff like this I just said that I didnt understand the shaving head part.

    There was no malice intended in anything I said ,why is everyone mad at me?

    I must have taken it out of context, then. My apologies.

    The shaving of the head is symbolic of the loss of hair that the children (or anyone) go through when they start Cemo. It's just another way to raise awareness, like the pink ribbons for breast cancer, or the MS walk.
