is Cami, a four year old, who was diagnosed with Pre-B Cell Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (the exact same thing that Elena has) just over a month ago. We recently came into contact with her and her family, who get their treatments up at Primary Children's like we do.
Remember how I told you about when Elena's hair fell out? It had fallen almost all out and when there were just a few stringy strands left, we shaved the rest of it off. Cami is reaching that point - where she just wants what's left of her hair gone. This Saturday, there is going to be a fundraising hair-cutting party for Cami. Check out the info below and go support her if you're in Utah.
Need a trim/cut/buzz/chop?

Cuts for Cami
Location: Dancin' it up

This event is given to support four-year-old Cami, who was recently diagnosed with Acute B Cell Lymphocydic Leukemia. She's kissing her hair goodbye for a while, so we're joining her (and having some fun while we're at it). Some of Utah's best stylists are coming together and donating their time for this great cause. Whether you’re coming to chop off some hair with us, grab a cookie at Cami's bake sale (sponsored by Paradise Bakery), or just dance and chat.
It’s sure to be a fun-filled day for all!

When you meet someone who's just starting out, aren't you glad you're one of the experts now? That you have nearly four months (and good success) behind you? She's an adorable little girl, and hopefully will have the same success as Elena.
mom: nearly five months - we've got to count every one of those hard won months. :)
it does feel kind of nice to have a little experience behind us - the unknown can be so scary.
This is such a great idea--I'm sad that we're all the way out in Mississippi :( I'm sure that there will be a lot of success at Cuts for Cami though.
What a great idea!! Wishing the very best for Cami, and continued success for our Elena...we love you!
Wish I could be there to participate!
how cool! are you guys going? we might be able to swing it. thanks for posting this, briana!
Oh I wish I could be there to celebrate! I grew my hair out and cut it all off last year to donate. I've been growing it out since the cut to do it again. Although I've had the itch to cut it off, seeing this helps me remember I'm growing it out for a good cause!
