Hello,
You always get these Emails about one thing or another and wonder if it is true...Well, this one is for sure true...it involves my family.
This involves my recently deceased brother's children....3 years ago my niece had breast cancer, she was getting all healed up when her husband came down with a liver disease...he had a liver transplant last year and just recently came home....The day before her husband came home my nephew [her brother] suddenly went into a coma...he has Encephalitis and is just now beginning to regain some of his functions...scarey stuff.
Here is an Email I got from my niece's son...he is doing a fund raiser for his uncle [my nephew] I just thought it was so cute and worth sharing....This kid won't worry about shaving his head...he saw his mothers hair fall out and grow back, saw his dad on deaths door and come home after a year....
Hi,

> My Uncle Robin has been in a coma since March 8th, as a result of a virus
> in the brain.
> He is slowly recovering at the hospital in Victoria B.C.. Unfortunately
> Uncle Robin, who is a city bus driver, hadn't been there long enough to
> qualify for any disability insurance. Anna is now looking after Uncle
> Robin & their baby boy Dayne, so they don't have any income coming in.
> We were overwhelmed with the support & generosity my family received when
> we were going through our own health issues over the past 2 1/2 years.
> Now I want to do my part for Uncle Robin & his family.
> I want to raise money in exchange for shaving my head. Once the money is
> raised the person who is the highest bidder will be the one to shave my
> head (my Mom & Dad are hoping to do that).
> I've attached a picture of my current hair style, that I've been growing
> for a year.
> Please help in any way that you can, no amount is too small.
> Donations can be mailed to me at:
> Reece Tyler
> 11 Shannon Hill SW
> Calgary, AB
> T2Y 2Y6
> If writing a cheque, please make it payable to:
> R. Tyler
> You can also email donations to:
> [email protected]
> I plan to get the haircut on or before May 20th.

> Thank you for your generosity.
