My name is Robin Henry and I am 12 years old, I live on a farm near Quirindi NSW.
I am half Dutch and have inherited beautiful blonde hair , which I have decided to donate to create a wig for children who have gone through chemo therapy and lost all their hair.
Although I am only 12 my family has experienced their fair share of cancer stories.
My mom lost both her grandmother and Aunty to cancer.
In 2019 while on a great family holiday in Bali with my 13 and 15 year old cousins from Holland, Merel my 15 year old cousin found a little lump in her armpit , within weeks she was diagnosed with cancer.
Her treatment was horrible and she lost all her hair, I am so grateful that she has made a full recovery .
At the moment my beautiful Omi ( my Dutch grandmother) is going thru Chemotherapy and has lost all her hair.
This has inspired me to donate my hair to create a wig, and raise money to go to the Cancer Council.
Thank you for reading my story ,
