Man's Gift to Pregnant Wife with Breast Cancer

The Couple Who Shaves Together...

Ready to be inspired? If you can't beat 'em, join 'em was clearly the motto on the lips of the dad-to-be who shaved his head as a gesture of solidarity for his pregnant wife, who also happens to be undergoing chemotherapy. 

According to an article in the Huffington Post, the man (known as 'slamhead') posted a "hair shaving extravaganza" album made up of 20 photos.

Probing from concerned commenters revealed that his wife has stage 2 breast cancer, but that the "prognosis is good for both mother and child."

Apparently—and amazingly—doctors claim the toxins in the chemotherapy won't harm the baby at this stage in the woman's pregnancy.

So the next time you are nagged with morning sickness, think of this woman, then reach for a ginger biscuit and count your blessings...

Kudos to this remarkably brave couple. Wishing them all the health and happiness there is!
