"It's heartbreaking to watch your child struggling to
deal with the physical and emotional pain of cancer"...
...says Domi (left), mother of cancer patient Becky (right). "So when Becky
told me how upset she was about losing her hair, I saw a way I could be closer
to what she was feeling.
I decided to have my hair shaved off and I talked it through with Becky."
Becky organised a mass head-shaving fundraising event - 40 people joined in
and raised over £3,000 for Teenage Cancer Trust.
"Becky was really touched to see so many people there and I know she enjoyed shaving my head."
