A first-grade student whose best friend is battling cancer decided that hours of playing and telling jokes was not enough - he wanted to show his buddy just how he understood the tough time he was going through.

有個一年級男孩,他最好的朋友患了癌症,這男孩經常陪朋友做遊戲講笑話,但他覺得這些還不夠。他想讓自己的好哥們兒知道,自己對他的痛苦感同身受。

Five-year-old Vincent Butterfield decided the only way was to shave his head in support of his best friend Zac Gossage who lost his hair through chemotherapy.

5歲的文森特·巴特菲爾德想了想,覺得剃光頭是支持哥們兒最好的辦法,因爲他最好的朋友扎克因爲化療頭髮都掉光了。

Zac was diagnosed last June with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. He is undergoing treatment but still goes to Union Central Elementary in Missouri every day - because that's where he gets to hang out with Vincent.

扎克去年6月確診患有急性淋巴細胞白血病。他現在在接受治療,但仍堅持每天去密蘇里州的聯盟中心小學上學,因爲只有在那兒他才能和好友文森特相聚。

When the little boy was asked why he shaved his hair off, he told KSDK: 'To make Zac feel like he’s not the only one without any hair.'

KSDK電視臺記者問小男孩爲什麼要剃光頭,他說:“我想讓扎卡感覺他不是唯一沒有頭髮的人。”

Vincent has also been learning about cancer and raising money for his best friend after learning how expensive his chemotherapy treatments are.

文森特也已經開始研究有關癌症的信息,在瞭解到化療如此昂貴之後他又開始爲好哥們兒籌錢。

He made more than 20 scarves and sold them, raising more than $200 to give to Zac.

他自己做了20多條圍巾然後去賣,籌到了200多美元給扎克。

The little boy's mom Karen Butterfield told KSDK: 'We had been making these scarves and he just kind of said it would be cool if we could make a whole bunch of these and sell them.'

小男孩的媽媽凱倫·巴特菲爾德告訴KSDK電視臺記者:“我們編織了這些圍巾,他說如果我們做出一大堆這樣的圍巾然後再去賣,那將會很酷。”

When asked what friendship was, Vincent looked at his friend Zac and responded: 'It's a beautiful thing.'

記者問文森特什麼是友誼,他看看朋友扎克,然後說道:“友誼很美好。”

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia is a fast-growing cancer of the white blood cells. The cancer, which attacks the blood and bone marrow, is most common in children aged two to five years old and has optimistic survival rates.

急性淋巴細胞白血病是一種白血球快速增長的癌症。這種癌症會破壞血液和骨髓,2到5歲孩童患病較多,存活率較爲樂觀。
