Default two boy dolls for sick kids

The 'green eyed boy doll' will be delivered tomorrow to a local 6 year old (from Crescent City, CA), who is waiting for a kidney transplant. They are trying to raise money locally to help the family with involved expenses, for doctors, testing etc etc. I have been told I may take a picture of him and post it on line. His name is Trent. I think he is the boy doll with the overalls.

The blue eyed boy(Wearing a hoodie) (Jaeson) will be going to an 8 year old (from Merlin, OR) who was born with his heart upside down and backwards. He does well lots of the time, but has llimitations, as to be expected in such a case as his, thus some 'sick days'. Specialists are hoping he will 'hang on' until he is at least 20 as they feel that is a better time for a heart transplant, which is his only 'pretty much for sure hope'.

I will be mailing the doll to Oregon for the 8 year old tomorrow. Two of your quilters from the quilting forum are making a quilt so each of these boys will have one in 2 or 3 weeks from now.

I hope you all enjoy seeing the dolls. If I get a picture tomorrow of Trent I will post it. The top picture reflects the back side (or sleepy eyed side) of the boys.
