Shaving for Tim

Thankyou!

Thankyou to everyone who supported me with this Shave and a Huge Happy Birthday to Tim who would have been 50 on Saturday. 

Update.....

On Sunday night Tim Richings passed away. The world has lost an amazing father, husband and friend. He is no longer in pain and is able to be himself again after almost a year long fight with terminal stage four brain cancer. He will be sorely missed. I’m glad he’s comfortable now. 

Some new decisions

Due to how quickly Tim is deteriorating unfortunately the beautiful girls and mum mel cannot make it due to how hectic their life has become. So instead I will be dedicating certain parts of my hair that I cut off to each of them.

Hi everyone

Hi there everyone! I am so thankful for the donations I have received currently. I will have to have a look into a date soon so I can get everything organised. Hopefully I can organise this to be at a local park of some sort! 

I’m fundraising for Cancer Council Victoria to help stop cancer.

Hi everyone. 

So cancer has recently touched my life in a very upsetting and abrupt way and I want to do something proactive about it. I decided to shave my hair for Tim Richings who got diagnosed with Stage 4 Terminal Brain cancer last year. He is such an important person to me and I love him and his family so much that it’s impacting me. He is like a big brother to me (despite being old enough to be my dad) and his family is a second family to me. I love them all so much that I couldn’t stop thinking about ways I could help anyone who might be in any similar horrible situations. I’m not sure exactly when I will be shaving my head but I’ll keep everyone updated. Thank you.

Every year more than 35,000 Victorians hear the words ‘you have cancer’.

Thanks in part to generous Victorians, 7 in 10 of them will survive five years after a cancer diagnosis, but there’s still so much work to be done.

Cancer Council needs our support more than ever this year. Every dollar raised gives hope for a cancer free future. By supporting my shave, you’re funding life-saving cancer treatments, prevention programs, and support services that ensure no one has to face cancer alone.
