yeah, it was surprising for me to know what those guys are doing.......

I knew mike's hair is long for a reason hehehehe skater boy hahaha JK

 

Thats super cool..

 

i wonder if art will look like antonio banderez with long hair

 

I just wish I could do more. My hair is pretty long now, but Art has a long ways to go. I was going to look into how I might be able to spend some time at the hospitals with those children. It really does break my heart.

 

As i posted in The Drag Racing Thread about this topic.....

Its unbeleivable to see such a thing from two very special members of our HT community...I think this is so extrordinary. Who has the patience and demeanor to go out of their way to do this? Most people would give it a thought and then go on about their ways, These men actually went through with it. You guys are true gentleman, Simply amazing humans, and we should all be so fortunate to have you fellahs amongst us.., i cant give u guys enough of these x1000

 

good job guys and way to be giving

 

After my girlfriend died of Ewing's Sarcoma (a VERY rare form of bone cancer that only affects teenagers) in March, I started volunteering at the children's hospital where she underwent treatment. I spend most of my time tutoring kids and holding babys, but I go up to the oncology (cancer) wing every now and then to talk to kids up there. If you are interested, just call your local childrens hospital and ask for the volunteer services desk, most hospitals are DESPERATE for volunteers.

 

I fill what your going through right now ,I fill really bad for my uncle Im trying to spend as much time as possible with him but its hard with my work and all.

 

thanks for the info and sorry to hear about your loss. Peter, I know your uncle appriciates it very much. I know everyones different, but when im going through scary times like this, I like to have people around me. Its comforting to me.

 

Seems like the server is down, but is what it says:
I need to take a pic, but I have a long way to go. I havent cut my hair in 2 months, but its all going to a good cause.

art

 

Art...I hope yours grows faster then mine. I havnt cut my hair in over a year. Anyone whos interested in it though should check out the website. Its not to bad, your hair just has to be 10" in length. They even accept the hair if its dyed. They are looking for all types and textures too

 

Im down guys , just a little harder for me hehe Ive got a honda symbol'd scar on my head from an accident earlier this year. But Im gonna do it

 

oh man...thats awesome. Im super excited. Im not gonna lie...lol, it gets tough to have hair in your face but its worth it.

 

My girlfriend (see my last post) was actually supposed to get a wig through this charity, which she was super excited about. She didn't ever get one though, because she decided she hated wigs (too hot here in GA and too scratchy) and cancelled her request. She swore she was gonna donate her hair once it grew back though. She liked to rock it bandanna-style, so she could coordinate with her outfit:

 

Wow, I am sorry to hear that. She looks beautiful in the pix

 

Man...These are reasons I'll never leave this board. Inspiring!
In 98 I was in a car accident due to a mechanic not tightening the lugnuts on my left rear tire all the way. As we were going down the highway the left rear tire came off my bronco causing us to control and rolled 3 1/2 times. The roof came down so hard it hit me in the head and caused 2 compression fractured vertebra, a fractured neck, and I also had a broken wrist and finger. However, all in all, I came out on top (no pun intended ). I now work on my own car, have an obsessive compulsive disorded regarding tightening the lugnuts , and the many people that helped me recover inspired me to get to where I am now...in nursing school. Gotta give something back
and thank the lord! (sorry for the long post-just thought I should share)

 

Mad props to everyone who does this. I might do it, myself. I kinda wanted to grow out my hair too... maybe now my girlfriend would actually let me (lost her mom to cancer 4 years ago), given the reason.

Before anyone takes the chop (no, not that chop), you should post some before and after pictures.

 

hmm this is very interesting. I might go ahead and do it, i've been growing my hair for a while now and it's at about 6 inches all around. I guess this will be a good place for it to go once i decide to butcher it all off.

 

I totaly agree with you on this.It breaks my hear and also brings a tear to my eye.

 

Im so happy this has had a positive response. Im gonna go from one extreme to the next by growing my hair, then shaving it bald. Im glad to see that you guys will do the same thing.

art
