By yourself in time, but for now, Grief Bear is just great! We used ours for therapy for the kids - they took it to bed, spoke to it, cried with it...it was wonderful and we all have fond memories of the Hannah bear fulfilling a very unique need.

I feel blessed to know someone who can readily see that special need for other people...even though I am saddened that we've had to meet this way, I still feel very blessed.

[> We too have a bear ! -- Heather S., 19:10:22 01/21/04 Wed

We took the kids to "Build A Bear" and let them pick one out. The stuffed him with tons of love and kisses.
Eachone put a heart inside before he was sewn up.
We call him Noah's bear. We dressed him in a cute little outfit. We don't let the kids play with him but they do cuddle him and tell the bear stories etc.

It really helps me out. The kids really loved making this for their little brother.

Do use our bigger version - we actually ended up purchasing a total of 3 bears (2 small ones and one larger one). One small one was buried with Hannah, one sits inside of her cabinet in our bedroom and the other larger one gets slept with and such.

I loved the idea of building your own bear - I've only seen one of those places once, but I still know where it is! The hearts are just enough to make me tears up this morning!
