As part of my church calling in the Relief Society Women's Organization I am able to plan activities for the women to get together and learn skills or give service. We decided to do a service project for the pediatric unit of our local hospital Utah Valley Regional Medical Center here in Provo.
We made surgery buddy dolls that are given to children. They have no faces so the kids can decorate them however they like. The doctors use these dolls to show the kids what procedure they are going to have done. The dolls are comforting companions for the children in the hospital.
It went great and I am grateful to all of the ladies that helped this project come together to a make it a reality. The hospital was so grateful. We attached the picture of all of us ladies holding the dolls to every doll given so the children and the family's can know that someone cares, loves, and is praying for them.
