Truly Me Doll for Arianna who dreams of having her own and is making a blanket for her new best friend

Posted Oct 23, 2017
Arianna gets very excited when she sees the American girl catalog at the Dr's office. She dreams of having one of her own. She is learning to sew and is making a quilt for the doll's bed. She is sure she will get one for Christmas. Arianna is an only child and plays with her imaginary friends (her dolls quite a lot). Several of her friends have American girl dolls and they bring them to slumber parties (awkward for Arianna). She loves the books too. Over the Summer, she has purchased several pieces of doll furniture, but she always get to the yard sale after the dolls are gone.

Arianna is 15 years old and lives in MA

Arianna is a trauma survivor. She was born with significant medical issues and was just shy of 4 months when she entered care. She has come a long way and now has lives a wonderful life! She is in the 4th grade and loves school. Arianna has a service kitty named Jayla, since she's too young for a dog, and Arianna says Jayla is her best friend. Arianna loves acting and is in her 3rd year as a member of Applause Academy, singing, acting and dancing in musical plays. She is legally blind due to having Cortical Visual Impairment (brain blindness) but the group has been awesome about working with her. Arianna recently donated her hair to "Locks of Love" and her favorite color is rainbow. Arianna is an only child, loves her trampoline and loves to play pretend with her dolls and stuffed animals.
