From the moment I heard about the project, the image of a child lying in a hospital and seeing doctors in masks came to me. It seemed like a difficult situation for child who is already in a difficult position.
With the help of an amazing film crew who volunteered for the project, we were able to bring this child to the screen, showing how a simple sticker, with the face of the medical team member, can make this situation a little easier

My mom always wanted me to become a doctor, but I could never get into med school. I guess this is as close as I'll ever get :)

When I heard the amazing idea of how to reduce the fear and anxiety of elderly patients in medical facilities, when treated by staff wearing masks, I asked myself – ‘how did we not think of this before?’.
I support and congratulate Rafi Albo on this initiative and will gladly devote time to help make this project a success.
