Holstein was visiting Julia Espinosa, a multi-organ transplant patient. She lost most of her hair in recovery and decided to shave her head, and Holstein did the same in a show of support.
“It’s something that’s a big stepping stone in her treatment and process getting better, and we just wanted to come out to her and help her and I obviously wanted to show her that she’s not alone,” Holstein said.
