Breast cancer, pink glove, dancing, Jay Sean, “Down”.
Do you see any link between them?
Don’t worry if you dont, cause this link has just been established by the staffs from the Providence St. Vincent Medical Center in Portland, Oregon, USA.
About 200 staffs including the doctors, nurses, lab techicians, administrators, kitchen and janitorial employees participated in a dance in which all of them donned pink latex gloves and dance to the beat of Jay Sean’s R&B song “Down”.
The purpose? To help raise money in the fight against breast cancer.
The media? Viral marketing via YouTube.
The audience? 2.7 million viewers and climbing up fast.
The commentors? 4,000 souls have been touched by their act and expressed their gratitude and support.
The video was shot at the hospital early last month to help raise money in the fight against breast cancer. A portion of sales from the pink gloves, made by Medline Industries in Illinois, will provide mammograms for uninsured women. The company also produced the video.
Watch the video below and do support breast cancer patients in any way you can.
This news is extracted from FoxNews and on Tuesday, December 8, 2009, about two dozens of the ‘dancers’ will on Fox and Friends.
ABCnews has extensive reporting by john Mckenzie for this video and have even covered the making of the video, which took two days in the medical facility, in which most of the time was spend in the dance choreography for these ‘non-professionally trained dancers’. The dance was inspired and made possible by “great heart and great spirits”, claimed by one staff.

“As a survivor … I smiled, I cried and I was deeply moved …”
Another wrote “… my aunt passed away last night due to cancer. This means the world to me.”
One hospital. One simple act. One heart. One dance. One reason. One world.

A friend of mine jokingly asked me why my interest of breast have progressed to breast cancer, and asked me my next breast topic is it chicken breast meat?
Well, jokes aside, to many guys, we do not seem to understand the implication of breast cancer and we are not able to relate the sufferings with breast cancer victims.
I’m not able to relate to any also, since I only came across the real fact of cancer when my dad caught one 6 years ago and my uncle 3 years ago. Both of them suffered from colorectal cancer, and my dad survived till now while my uncle died painfully 2 years ago.
For guys who can’t put themselves in the shoes of these breast cancer victim, remember, breast cancer will happen to anybody, including your mother, your sister, your wife, your girlfriend, your daughter, and surprise to many guys, even yourselves.

In case you didn’t realize, the word “abit” on your site is spelled incorrectly. I had similar issues on my website which hurt my credibility until someone pointed it out and I discovered some of the services like SpellHelper.com or SpellingCheck.com which help with these type of issues.
