Her bravery was clearly seen as she cheerfully greeted the guests who had come to show their support for her on Sunday. Im really excited, said Berezowski about the evenings event. Its nice to know how many people love you. Youth pastor John Wildeboer also recounted his personal battle with Hodgkins disease and acknowledged the tough journey Berezowski was about to embark upon towards her recovery. As Wildeboer spoke, Beresowskis friend, Amanda Peters, wrapped her arms around Berezowski and wiped the tears that began forming around Berezowskis eyes. Im just a good friend, said Peters when asked if she was Berezowskis best friend. She has a lot of good friends. Victoria has a big heart. Berezowski then sat in front of her supporters, ready to get her head shaved.

They showed the 16-year- old just how much last Sunday and moved her, and her mom, to tears. Ten members of the east Oakville church volunteered to shave their heads at a spe- cial event in support of 16- year-old Victoria Berezowski when they learned she had been diagnosed with Hodgkin's disease. The 10 volunteers, who wanted to show solidarity with Berezowski as she underwent chemotherapy for the disease, also raised $10,000 for Torontos Hospital for Sick Children over the three weeks since they learned of her con- dition. Marlene Nirula, one of the 10 volunteers, organized the event. I hate that she has to go through chemo, said Nirula as she addressed the guests. And I hate that she has to lose her hair. What I can do with you is lose my hair with you. said Nirula to Berezowski. Its our way of saying we love you. Berezowski admitted she was shocked when she first learned of her condition. She didnt think she could get can- cer. Now shes ready to fight it. You know you can get through it and just deal with it, said Berezowski as she shrugged off the thought of her battle.
