Oakland County high schoolers shave heads to support classmate battling rare cancer

High schoolers in Oakland County are "Going 4 It" to support their friend and classmate battling cancer. In March, Lamphere High School senior Tyler Abbott was diagnosed with a rare type of lymphoma cancer. His teachers say he's going through intense chemotherapy and spending time in and out of the hospital. Tyler wanted to shave his head in front of his classmates and teachers, and the whole school made it happen. A few of his friends joined him, including one of his teachers who chopped her ponytail to show support.
