  I bought Kian his Bummer Bear for his 2nd Birthday - Kian was born with a Congenital Heart Defect called Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (basically half a heart) and has had 2 open heart surgeries. While in the hospital for his 1st OHS he got a calcium burn due to a leaking line (got caught quickly) and due to this you could see inside his right groin until it healed and he is now left with a scar. I liked the mended heart^® bear but it had a full heart not half so I had Kians bear customised so it only had half a heart with stitches and I also had a zipper put across the right groin for the calcium burn (when the zipper is shut its the scar when open its when we could see into Kians groin). This picture is just of Kians Customised HLHS Bear :) x
