Lucky the teddy bear visits the teddy bear hospital for a wash and new overalls!
Lucky the teddy bear’s family thought it was time for some special care. He was pushing 40, hadn’t had a bath since the Eighties, and his person’s person thought he’d look cute if he got overalls. Here are a couple of his diagnosis photos:
We agreed on a spa, seam tightening, fur transplants as needed for bald spots, and new blue corduroy overalls with a pocket — he was a big fan of Corduroy the bear of book fame.
Here he is in his bubble bath:
If you look closely, you can see the water under the bubbles is turning tan as he gets clean.
Here’s his heart being made and installed with a bit of his original stuffing (blue to match his new overalls):
And here he is all better and ready to fly home!
Lucky’s family were close enough to drive down to the hospital and pick him up in person. They wrote:
He looks great – I definitely approve. You did a great job, and I’m so lucky to have found someone with your skill.
