Q: What was the one main factor that really led up to you making the decision to follow through and shave your head?

Q:Obviously doing what you did took a lot of courage and wasn’t an easy decision. Who were some people that helped you towards the decision and through whatever came after it?
A: My family and friends were my greatest supporters. They gave me more strength, confidence, and courage than I could have ever imagined.
