Shave to Save Hank

From Michael Schuerlein at IslesBlogger.com,
There comes a time when you sometimes need to step back from the fun stuff and take a serious look at life. This is one of those times - please read on.
My buddy’s brother-in-law Hank was recently diagnosed with an incurable blood cancer called Multiple Myeloma. Hank has already been through one round of chemo and after being back at work part-time for a few months, his last day of work was Tuesday. He’ll be out of commission again for 3-4 months while he undergoes a stem cell transplant.
read on for more of Hank’s story and what Michael is doing to help.
Donations for the Shave to Save campaign—note: Hank’s wife will be shaving her head if she can raise $10,000 to help others suffering from this disease—can be made here.

Thanks for the support guys!
Hopefully for Deanna, she will be sporting a great new haircut come May!
Her brother Chris and I will also be shaving our heads in support if she makes her goal!
