Hugs in Heaven

Last year, I sent a BearHug to my adopted niece, Bismita, in Nepal. She is our daughter's age. She loved her Hug! This morning, I heard the most touching story...A few months ago, Bismita's great grandmother, who is more that 100 years old, became ill, and was admitted to the local hospital. Bismita had given her the plush BearHug for comfort to take along and snuggle up in. Sadly, great grandmother passed on a little while later after a full and healthy life, filled with love. As is custom in Nepal, all belongings are taken by the local Lama and spread among the poor...BearHug included! I have never met grandmother, but she sure felt like family. She was loving and loved by all, a lovely, bright spirit that kids and animals intuitively felt drawn to. It is so wonderful to know this beautiful woman enjoyed the Hug, and that now someone, somewhere far away is all snuggled up in this BearHug...



My mother will be visiting Nepal again this Fall, and she will be packing a brand new BearHug for Bismita!
