Thank you to kaz for this scan of Keanu from PinkRibbon magazine.
October is breast cancer awareness month and Keanu went out of his way to do this photo before he left Australia, in support of the National Breast Cancer Foundation.
Here are some other links if you'd like to learn more and see what you can do to help.
The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation
National Alliance of Breast Cancer Organizations
CIGNA Foundation (go here and click the pink ribbon)
dude, how cool is that?
Posted by: kd on October 17, 2002 12:35 PMVery.
I wonder how we could let the organization know that it was because we learned that he was lending his support that the donations were made? Or if we even should.
Does anybody understand what I am trying to ask?
Posted by: tyler on October 17, 2002 12:58 PMFran asked me why I haven't done anything on my blog yet (you know, that's actually how I ended up with all the pink in the first place. ;) ), and I had to confess that I'm just lazy. Sheesh. If Keanu can take the time, I suppose I should too, huh? (since he's slightly busier than I am, I'm sure. lol)
Posted by: skits on October 17, 2002 01:35 PMI think I know what you're saying, Tyler. I would bet that the man would think it not necessary. Just support is all that matters.

So, the coolness just keeps on rising.
I'd like to offer up my breasts to Keanu so that he might refine his breast exam techniques. I mean, often it's a man who finds the first unusual lump.....
After having a nice little biopsy done...I wish he'd been around to apply the ice, now that I think of it. Sigh. If only I'd seen this sooner.
