Parents whose children had to remain in the hospital were given a plush Dominic to take to their child. It meant so much to the families to be included and have something fun to bring to the hospital the next day. They loved taking pictures of Dominique to share with, and brighten up, their child’s day.

This beaming grandmother can’t wait to deliver Dominique to her new grandson in the hospital.

Making a Special Surprise Visit

Heather wanted to surprise her 95 yr old Granny who is on hospice care. Everyone was disappointed when we arrived because they could not wake her.

All of a sudden she woke up and was so surprised!

Gretel, my daughter, and Connor, my 5-year-old grandson, were visiting from CA. Gretel took photos while Connor gave every member Dominique’s card and autograph. It was such fun to be able to share with him how Dominique brings smiles on his visits!

Everyone had so many good questions about Dominique that we just stood up front with a microphone
and answered questions along with telling a few short funny stories. Dominique was still getting hugs as we left!
