A lot of fun at Revel with a Cause

What a great "Revel with a Cause" concert on Wednesday. The Diamonds kicked things into high-gear with a great performance, followed by Gary Puckett and The Association. These guys really know their oldies music, with a mixture of cover songs and originals by Gary Puckett it was a time-machine back to a different time. My favorite was when the Diamonds performed a heart-wrenching "Unchained Melody." Wow. That song helped produce a standing ovation, the second of the night after a great standing ovation for Dr. Goulet when he received the Lawrence H. Einhorn M.D. Award.



Robert J. Goulet Jr., M.D.: What a man, and what accomplishments and impact he continues to make in the fight against breast cancer. Truly a man of compassion for his clients, and passion in the fight against breast cancer. Congratulations Dr. Goulet! You deserve every bit of your standing ovation!

Photos: Browse through our album of photos from Revel with a Cause.

Have a great Pinktober, and don't forget that the Mt. Auburn March for the Cure is Saturday, November 3rd.

"Be my Bra"

Who's your bra?

A bra is support. A bra is strength. Women everywhere need that extra support in facing their breast cancer. You may have a mother, sister, daughter, or friend with the disease. Breast cancer will affect 1 in 7 women (and it affects men too!). Be someone's support. Be a bra.

Lifetimetv.com has gone the extra mile and put together this great "Be my Bra" campaign. The Lifetimetv website has a lot of resources: videos, blogs, and ways to share stories and support in the fight.

Be My Bra.

Going once, going twice... SOLD!
