I have had brain tumors my whole life. I have had 2 craniotomy procedures since I was 17. I am now 35. I have my 3rd brain tumor and an 8 and 5 year old children going through this with me. I was growing my hair out to donate for a wig for someone. It is all about positive attitude to make it through. I am trying to start a national day of “Donate Your Hair to Show You Care” where everyone gets their hair cut on August 13th every year. I have not cut my hair once since I had my last tumor the size of 3 golf balls removed in 2012. I have been a chef since 2005 and have my own website. I want to raise awareness and create hope in the world of tumors and cancer. “Never give up, never give in keep on fighting cause we’re gonna win”
