| Now available exclusively from Hollister, the ostomy Shadow Buddy doll can help children through the experience of ostomy surgery. The Shadow Buddy doll was designed by the mother of a pediatric ostomy patient as a "special friend" for her son. The ostomy Shadow Buddy is a muslin doll that has a stoma just like the child who is undergoing ostomy surgery. For each child, the ostomy Shadow Buddy is someone who is "just like me." For health-care professionals, the Shadow Buddy is an excellent educational tool for both children and parents. |
|
Shadow Buddies are available in several different styles:
- Boy or Girl
- Light, Medium, or Dark Skin Tone
- Blonde, Brown, Red, or Black Hair Color
|
|
| A new "Senior Buddy," with gray hair, is also available for older ostomy patients! |
