A video from five students in their creation of a craft that attempts to represent their PIE mentor's patient experience. We have chosen to make slime for a variety of reasons: given the current pandemic, we wanted to create a product that we could eventually give to our PIE mentor's as something they can play with and destress with, in the safety of their homes. The slime has the ability to stimulate multiple senses: visually, olfactory and somatosensory during manipulation. Lastly, each slime's unique traits (colour, scent, feel) characterize our PIE mentor's distinct personalities and experiences with the medical system.
