But mine did 🤗 On the occasion of National Cancer Day, I would like to share something really special ”She also added, “Ryan felt heartbroken seeing several folks who were undergoing chemo for cancer. With everything they go through, they lose their hair. My son took a call of donating his hair to the Cancer Society. We as parents were thrilled with his decision.
