These are the surgical instruments used to make a Cairdeas Doll.

Before surgery, patients wait in a special area with toys and books.

Every doll gets an IV to make sure they get enough fluids, just like their human friends!

The IV fluid hangs on our combo IV pole OR light.
As you can see, we are a very small hospital.

Each doll is covered with OR towels during surgery
to make sure everything stays clean.
This doll just got done with his operation.

After surgery, each doll rests in the recovery area.
