"When she asked in the funeral parlour if after we've seen her they could cut her hair to be donate, I just fell apart," Jan said."I didn't really want her to donate her hair, she's always had her long hair.

"But when I sat and thought about it - it's her request and I wouldn't go against that. We're so proud of her and she always wanted to help others."
