“I’m shaving my head,” vowed sister, Hannah in an interview on the Today show. “This is one of the ways that I can help kids with cancer and inspire them to be brave during their treatment,” she added.
The girls’ mother, Andrea, has already raised €107,000 for children’s cancer care through the organization, Infinite Love For Natalie Grace. Andrea was nervous at first when she heard of Hannah’s decision to shave off her hair.
“It’s obviously difficult as a parent to say no to your kid when they feel so strongly about something," she said.

“The fact that we are one of the fortunate families, that she is doing so well and had a good prognosis - I think that’s why we do so much…for those families who can’t do it themselves,” she added.
