A mother has taken to the public to make a desperate plea for the return of a teddy bear — but this wasn’t just any teddy bear. It played the recording of her son’s voice who passed away in February at only 19 months old.
A woman named Jodi Lynn, in the Humberside region of the UK, recently lost her baby boy named Noah this past February when he died in his sleep. Obviously, the young 18-year-old mother was grieving the loss of her son.
After her son passed, she was grateful to have a teddy bear that would play a recording of her late son’s voice.
The teddy bear also provided great comfort to Noah’s sister Alexiah — it helped her cope with the loss of her baby brother. She could hear his voice every time she squeezed the bear’s hand.
Sadly — the family was taking a bus from Anlaby Road to Boothferry in the town of East Yorks and they somehow lost the coveted teddy bear. The family was absolutely devastated. It was just a stuffed animal, but it meant so much.
After losing the teddy bear with Noah’s recording, his sister Alexia was extremely upset.
“It’s so upsetting and Alexiah is really upset. It was really comforting for her to have that bear because every time she got upset she would cuddle it so she could hear Noah’s voice. It helped her a lot after Noah’s death. It’s really helped her to cope and if she hadn’t had it she would have been a lot more upset.”
“I know that bear is out there somewhere and it would be great to find it. It would make my daughter so happy and she wouldn’t be sad anymore.”
Even Noah’s grandmother wants the world to know how important this bear was to this grieving family.
“Every time [Alexiah] is upset she will go and cuddle it and she will go ‘that’s my brother, Noah.’ We are very desperate to find it for the sake of my granddaughter and for the sake of the fact it is so personal. It’s got my grandson’s voice in it so it’s absolutely no use to anyone.”
The bear was from the Build-A-Bear store, it is brown and wearing a shirt that says “I love you.”
