With all that's been in the news lately concerning new guidelines for mammographies and cervical cancer screenings, this should bring a smile to everyone. It is great that this hospital staff participated in this video. It shows the importance of breast cancer awareness and just a good cause in general. Please pass this on to everyone you know so the video gets the 1 million hits it needs for the Medline contribution (1/4 of the way there). It is fun to watch everyday people have so much fun for a worthy cause. What a great way to showcase the company's pink gloves!



Our daughter-in-law, Emily (MacInnes) Somers, created, directed and choreographed this in Portland last week for her Medline glove division as a fundraiser for breast cancer awareness. This was all her idea to help promote their new pink gloves. I don't know how she got so many employees, doctors and patients to participate, but it started to really catch on and they all had a
lot of fun doing it.

When the video gets 1 million hits, Medline will be making a huge contribution to the hospital, as well as offering free mammograms for the community. Please check it out. It's an easy and great
way to donate to a wonderful cause, and who hasn't been touched by breast cancer?

Not sure how I missed this all this time, but just watched this and loved it! I have had 2 sisters with breast cancer and one is no longer living, and I am all for Breast Cancer Awareness, so please take the time to get your mammogram next month ladies. Do it for yourself, and do it for those you love!!

Kudos to those that put this together! It is fabulous I think!
