Doll with tube in nose and button in stomach | Watoto Arts

When Vide Lo saw that the doll also has a button in its stomach, they became friends and it became easier to accept their own button.

Together with the doll, Vide Lo processes what happens in the hospital. The doll gets to do the new, scary things before Vide Lo tests.

Vide Lo washes and fixes with the button in the belly of the doll and makes sure the probe tape is on the cheek. Sometimes the doll gets a syringe, band-aid or doctor's cap.

I think Lo has become safer and less afraid of hospital environments. It is also important that the doll normalizes that everyone is different and that it is completely okay. Different is good!
