Welcoming sick teddies, unicorns and dolls alike, the event has raised $500,000 for charity since 2009.
When Marshall Teather fell off his bed, his relatives feared he’d broken his neck and leg. And so he was rushed to hospital – at Chadstone Shopping Centre.Here for first aid: Aston Teather holds teddy bear Marshall as his parents and three siblings look on.But Marshall is not human, he’s a soft toy, and he was “treated” on Sunday at the Teddy Bear Hospital.
The diagnosis was better than expected — just a few strains, and so physiotherapy students helped Marshall lift some weights and gave him a massage. Check up: a student doctor examines Beatrix Elisse Garcia’s teddy, Beatrice, as Mum Christine looks on.It’s not just for teddies: sick and injured dolls, dinosaurs, zebras and unicorns were all welcome, too.
Peter said when Beatrix Elisse had been sick in the past, she had feared doctors “because they prod and poke her” but this was a nicer environment.
