Cheyenne Mello sews pillows for patients who are on dialysis. She currently supplies her pillows to those at Rady Children Kidney Clinic. She states, “The recipients are young children and teens who had liver and kidney disease and are on dialysis for 3 to 8 hours 5 times a week. I make pillows because I want people to feel comfortable and feel safe when laying and holding my pillows. These pillows are supplied to dialysis patients because they have to sit in a chair for hours while getting their blood clean in a cold room with not much comfort. I make or 50 pillows are a year and give them to family, friends, teacher and of course patients.”
