"Then he was diagnosed with the disease himself.

God doesn't like him because he was helping other kids that God didn't like.

Life is a sexually transmitted terminal disease.

Some will suffer longer than others. A short life is best.

My daughter had her hair cut off to donate to cancer kid wigmakers, just before setting out on a long hike. Her pics from the trail, posted online when close to civilization, show her hair growing in from bald-blad to Charlize Theron in Mad Max to ambiguously gendered Pat from SNL. I hope it returns to its former glory of long ringlets, eventually.

If you're cutting your long hair off, donating it to help kids is a great thing to do.

That sucks. Life is a chaotic process with often stable but unpredictable states of indefinite duration and unqualified nature.

Or did his parents? Sorry. I didn't watch the video because I didn't want to sit through a commercial.

When my niece was 4 her mother Facebook that "Niece donated hair!" No, she didn't. She had no idea.
