A video published by a 17-year-old girl has touched internet users, because after being diagnosed with cancer, she decided to share the moment when her boyfriend shaved her head to face her future chemotherapy.
Proving that true love does exist, the boy did not stop showing his affection, filling her with kisses, while he began to shave her head little by little. The brave girl did it to raise awareness among society and help others who, like her, suffer from this terrible disease.
The video that has moved the internet has been seen by more than 25 million users on TikTok and its protagonist wanted to take advantage of this broadcast to ask for the collaboration of people in the fight waged by many people with cancer. Under the name “All against cancer!”, The young woman began to raise funds in an association on the Internet, where she presented her case.
Hello, my name is Candice, I am 17 years old. I was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma in December 2022. It is a cancer of the lymph node that affects many young people like me. This cancer is treated very well today, but it is still a difficult ordeal!
Although currently suffering from cancer is not synonymous with death, the truth is that treatments are usually very expensive. In addition, Candice is aware that for women, hair loss caused by chemotherapy is a difficult subject to assimilate, so to cheer herself up and encourage other people, she decided to record herself saying goodbye to her hair.
To cure (cancer) you have to go through important treatments, especially chemotherapy, which has many side effects. Hair loss is still the most complicated step for a young woman in construction. I decided to expose myself on the TikTok social network under the name @candice_c_t.

The most admirable thing is that Candice is not focused on her own disease, but is focused on finding a way to support other people who are suffering from this disease, since her dream is to raise funds to deliver them to different cancer associations or future research in this field.
