Before and After

    Well, I did it! Altogether I managed to raise $755 for Leukaemia Foundation via the World's Greatest Shave. I feel happy, and a little self conscious, but I'm getting used to it. I've got my little badge that says Proud Shaver. I'll be wearing that for a couple of weeks.

Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow

How do you feel?
About losing your hair
How will you feel?
when the last fibre falls

When you walk the streets
Will you hold your head high?
Have you got the right stuff?
To withstand uninformed stares.

I think I can.
I know I will.

Tomorrow morning I will lose my hair for the Leukaemia Foundation. Twice I exceeded my personal fundraising goals for the World's Greatest Shave. I better get a beanie ready.

World's Greatest Shave

    I am over the moon with the sponsorship that has gone towards my fundraising for the World's Greatest Shave. I've still got ways to go to reach my goal. Here's a little food for thought about this fundraiser:

Today, 34 Australians will be given the devastating news that they have blood cancer, and they’ll turn to the Leukaemia Foundation for help.

On Saturday 12th March I will be sacrificing my head hair and having it shaved off to raise money for the Leukaemia Foundation. Please sponsor me and help support families and continue the urgent search for cures.

Getting sponsored to shave your hair is an extraordinary way to help people with leukaemia, lymphoma and myeloma, but I can't do it alone.

Help me make the most of my hairy sacrifice. Sponsor me at least $28 today which can provide a cancer information pack to help a family prepare for the challenges ahead.

    On the day that I shave my head I will share a before and after photo so you can see the new me. I know I'm nervous. Are you nervous? I am.

Pinspirations - Leukaemia Special

    Time for my pinspiration line up - my picks from Pinterest. Since I will be shaving my head as part of the World's Greatest Shave, to help fundraise for the Leukaemia Foundation, I decided to go with a very specific pinspiration theme, as you'll see further below.

Me, with hair, at the moment.
Not for long though.

    If you would like to take part in the fundraiser, you can sponsor me to completely lop off my hair. For more details please visit the following link.

World's Greatest Shave

    The World's Greatest Shave is just around the corner and at the moment Australians are raising funds for the Leukaemia Foundation, a charity that funds research into blood cancer and supports people and families dealing with Leukaemia, lymphoma and myeloma.

    I decided to do what I can to raise awareness and some money for the Leukaemia Foundation - I am going to shave my head hair off! And you can help by being a sponsor. For all the details simply visit the below link -
