Teddy Bear from the doctor's office

Here is a picture of Paul with the 53" teddy bear that the doctor's office gave to him.   Her name is "Nema".

WOW!  That's one huge bear!!!! LOL
 

I love stuffed animals...but that's bigger than ANY of mine. Jealous!!

Almost bought one that big for my daughter's birthday last year (she was 2), but I settled on a smaller one (which was still almost as big as her).

Cute!   "Well, the good news is, if one of you has to go out of town, the other will have a larger than life size cuddle buddy!" LOL!

Holy Crap!! I want one!! Don't know where I would put it, but I want one.    Seriously, that is too cute. Paul looks good, hows he feeling?

BTW, I think we have the same couch. lol.

Thanks - Paul is doing better -- but having a foot problem as a result of the diabetes (never a dull moment).     Got a cortisone shot today and the podiatrist is getting him special sneakers which comes under our insurance.   How is your husband doing?     

Chip is doing pretty good, all things considering (thanks for asking!). He pretty much is managing his diabetes, but he did spend a couple hours in the ER on Weds due to a stomach flu. Bugs and Crohn's do not mix well and he had to get pumped with fluids. SOP for us. He's feeling better now and is, at the moment, munching down on Fritoes   . Well, I can't say anything, his eating habits have improved 200% but he still allows himself a treat now and then.

Hope Paul's foot straightens out soon! Is it a circulation problem? 

Foot problem comes from diabetes, according to the podiatrist.     He is keeping off his feet and said the cortisone shot seems to have kicked in (hopefully).   We found out that if y ou have diabetes the insurance gives  you a free pair of special sneakers.     Podiatrist was to order them but then the distributor couldn't get them.   They gave us the phone no. of a local shoe store where they said we could get the shoes but the store said we've had to pay for them - $165 -- and then get it from the insurance co.   Didn't want to do that!  The podiatrist's receptionist (who isn't very helpful) finally told us that she has catalogs and we can get them from their office -- just a differernt distributor.  Don't know why they didn't tell us that at the beginning!    

Hope Chip is feeling better!  And thanks for your concern.   Means a lot to us.

I wish my doctor gave out teddy bears lol.

What was the occasion, or is that SOP for that particular doctor?

No special occasion - other than he had completed  his 35 EECP treatments.  This dr's office just always does nice things like that.

That thing is huge!!!!
