Woman shaves head in support of cancer patient sister
9:34am Friday 25th January 2013 in News
Jodi Lawrence has her head shaved by step-sister Karen Hursey.
A CAR part courier has shaved her hair off in solidarity with her sister.
Jodi Lawrence also hopes to raise hundreds of pounds for Cancer Research UK for losing her long locks.
Jodi, 38, decided on the change of hairstyle after sister Kerry Orlik, 42, was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in October. Hairdresser Kerry is about to start her second treatment of chemotherapy when she is likely to lose her hair, so on Kerry’s birthday yesterday Jodi chopped off her hair.
Keeping it in the family Jodi’s step-sister Karen Hursey, also a hairdresser, stepped in to do the shaving.
