Janice's Head Shave for her little sister Jayne - QEH Chemotherapy Suite
Fundraising for The Queen Elizabeth Hospital King's Lynn Charitable Fund
Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
To anyone who knows me, I love my hair and anything to do with hair, so to sit across a table and to hear these 8 words "You will lose all your hair within 3 weeks" would be devastating.
Because of extensive breast cancer treatment, this is what my sister Jayne was told. To be told that you have Breast Cancer is simply awful awful awful. . I felt that I had to help - But how? Normally as a sister you cannot advise what you would usually advise when she is feeling so ill? Like take a couple of Aspirin, you will feel better? Put a plaster on it. It will heal? Go lay down, the rest will cure you? Have a nice holiday, a change of scenery is what you need?
So, the only way I can show my support for Jayne, is to have my hair shaved off at 2.15 pm on July 31st by Annette at Images Hair & Beauty Kings Lynn.
I would like to raise £1000 for the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Kings Lynn Chemotherapy Suite , where Jayne is undergoing her intensive treatments . Here, Jayne tells me that the staff and volunteers cannot do enough to care for her and the other cancer patients , when she has her 4 hourly intravenous drip treatments every 21 days.
Head Shave ? I must admit, I do keep having second thoughts but unlike Jayne, she does not have the option of 'a second thought'
Yes I love my hair but I also love my little sister.
Thank you very much - much love Janice (Curtis) x
