Doing what I can for the children

Jayne tell us why she is involved...

I have a weakness for children and had been religiously browsing through the CCF site. I chanced upon Shear Inspiration and I thought it was a good opportunity to show my support for children with cancer.

To me, they didn’t choose to be born or diagnosed with cancer. The least I can do is just this gesture and hopefully get donations flowing in. I believe their parents do not have an easy time at all, having to take care of them and to manage other things in life.

I cannot imagine the pain these children have to go through, in terms of medications and chemo therapies. They certainly do not have the luxury that other children enjoy.

Each time I think about me going to shave my head, I will think again, whatever I am going to lose is only superficial. Whatever the children are going through, that is really deep inside them.

I empathise with them, and want them to get better and happier.

I know I made the right decision, I was brave enough, to say yes to Shear Inspiration. I know I’m supported by people around me. I am proud to be in this meaningful project, and am very happy to be involved.
