Like us on FB:

Don’t you just hate hospitals? They smell of medicines and disinfectants. The beds are uncomfortable, and the worst part is, patients have to wear the same hospital gowns every single day. Being in these gowns make many patients feel bad about themselves because they remind them of their sickness. Thankfully, several designers decided to give hospital gowns a new look and the kids love them to bits.

Hospital gowns aren’t exactly the most comfortable clothes to wear when you’re sick.

But this changed when designers teamed up with a nonprofit organization to make clothes children can wear in hospitals.

One child said that “wearing a hospital gown is like being in a hospital” and that there’s nothing good about it.

Another said that when you can’t wear what you want you feel you can’t be yourself and that that you’re just your illness.
