Woman Gets Cancer Diagnosis, Friends Shave Heads In Solidarity, Turns Out She Doesn't Need Chemo

With all the media around cancer treatment and chemotherapy, it's pretty easy to get an oversimplified impression of what a cancer diagnosis can mean. Fortunately for this woman, she had an operable form of stage 0 breast cancer, so the prognosis is looking pretty good. When she told her friends about it, she left out some important information, and left them to their own devices on the matter. Thinking their friend was going to go through the arduous process of chemotherapy, they all decided to shave their heads for their friend. 

Who can really blame them for wanting to make their friend feel better? It's definitely in the right vein of what we'd appreciate our friends doing for us, though it is hilariously misguided. There hearts were in the right place, even if their hair isn't. Those are some supportive people, and we should all be so lucky to have friends like them.
