Story

Hi, my name is Dustin Bridger and I am 8 years old. Like Thor, i hadn't cut my hair for 3 years. These are some things I like in life:

1) my hair
2) my football
3) my art
4) my family
5) animals (I've been a vegetarian since I was 3)

Until a few weeks ago my life was normal. Then I began to get sick, as I had a lump in my chest and found it hard to breath. About 4-weeks ago I was diagnosed with Leukemia and went to Great Ormond Street Hospital.

I have started chemo and am responding very well to treatment. But one of the side effects of treatment is that my hair has begun to fall out.

Today I decided to shave my hair and raise money for charity. For the time being, I am more Picasso than Thor.

I want to raise as much money as possible for WaterAid, Macmillan Cancer Support and the RSPCA. The other two charities are on my other JustGiving pages.
