If you follow Mixed Martial Arts, you would undoubtedly know the name Urijah Faber. Usually Faber makes headlines for choking out his opponents in the ring, but this time he is making news for an act of kindness.

Urijah's 19 year old sister Michaela Tastad was involved in a car accident while returning home from shopping on Black Friday. She suffered, among other injuries, life-threatening head trauma and physicians were forced to medically induce a coma at Sutter Roseville Medical Center in Sacramento, California. Part of her skull was removed as she underwent a surgery to insert a shunt to help drain fluid.

It's been just barley a month since the accident and Michalea has been working hard to regain her speech and memory.

In the video below, Urijah films his latest haircut. He decided to shave his head in honor of his sister. I saw this video and thought, how sweet of this guy. I guess I'm feeling all mushy today since christmas is this weekend! Enjoy and have a very Merry Christmas!
