Here's an update before the month ends. Before the Breast Cancer Awareness Month ends. I found a wonderful site called Keep A Breast Foundation containing ample information on the condition. On it includes an auction to raise money for the foundation, but had just ended. Take a look....
Audrey Kawasaki had this on her blog a while ago and i saw it again on Drawn! So, i think i should put it up for all to watch. It's really amazing. The entire mural was done and redone in a one week span, all of them breathtaking.
Autistic people always amaze me. Here's one on Stephen "The Human Camera" Wiltshire who could accurately draw entire cities from memory after a single 45-minute helicopter ride - right down to the correct number of windows on each building.

Do You Have A Cause This Month?
Thursday, October 05, 2006
Do you have a cause this month? It is International Breast Cancer Awareness Month...for the whole of October. I will leave this post up for the entire month in support of the awareness. And please do take the Pink Ribbon above and place it in your blogs as well. Let us educate the people around us about it and how we can prevent death by early detection. You may copy and alter it however you want but please do not hotlink it, it hurts bandwith.
edit : here's a link to a pink ribbon on white background!
Alternatively, stop by at the Breast Cancer Foundation of Singapore, The American Breast Cancer Foundation and the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. It's bloody annoying that i could not find a similar foundation website in Malaysia. Either i did not search well enough but it exists or it does not at all, which is tragic at this age.
Breast cancer is unpredictable and deadly. In the words of Susan G. Komen Foundation, it knows no boundaries. It does not discriminate and kills regardless of age, race, religion, socioeconomic status or geography. More than 203,000 women is diagnosed in the United States alone this year, and 40,000 will die. Let us help to reduce this number and make a difference in the lives of the women behind the numbers.
Please spread the word and donate if you are able to at the respective foundations. Help out at local hospitals. Provide psychological support to those suffering. You can make a world of difference, ....and this is sounding like one of those forwarded mails.
If you happen to be at this blog, spread the message. At least do what you can this month..... but it will remain a lifelong struggle. Play a part......
Will be back soon, and i just ordered my Nintendo DS Lite....WOOT!
