Amy Jandrisevits has always been an avid doll collector and maker. But when she was asked to create a doll for a little girl with a limb difference, a doll that would reflect her uniqueness, her world changed. Within months she had hundreds and hundreds of orders for new dolls. Since that moment, the orders haven't stopped.

In the following years, Amy has been very busy! Making dolls for children with limb differences, genetic abnormalities, even dolls with medical equipment! Dolls that for the first time ever, look just like the child that holds them. Dolls you can't find in store. Each and every doll lovingly hand made by Amy at her dining room table. With coverage from Oprah, Good Morning America, and CBS News, the world wants to know about Amy, her dolls, and the children that call them theirs.

Amy stands firm in her voice and the ability to change acceptance in today's world. Starting by changing WHO we see and HOW we see them. How powerful is that? If you do one thing, listen to this incredible story.
