This mum was so moved when she saw the latest American Girl doll as it represented her daughter and so many other daughter’s out there.

 

Meredith Bailey’s daughter was diagnosed with alopecia at just four years old and has been trying to find a doll for years that represents the common condition.

 

Trying for years to explain to her daughter why dolls like that weren’t available, Meredith just didn’t have the answers.

 

So imagine how thrilled her daughter was when she received this American Girl doll without hair for Christmas.

 

"On the second floor we hopped off the escalator and there in front of us was a display with doll a without hair! My daughter was ecstatic!"

 

Posting about her delight on Facebook, this mum said:

 

"This may feel to your company to be 'no big deal, but to little girls who may feel alone and so desperately want to see dolls that reflect their beauty — it means more than you know."

 

Meredith also posted a picture of her daughter cradling the doll that meant so much to her.

 

"I cried many happy tears yesterday.

 

"Thank you so much for including ALL children."
