What We DoTucker's Teddies Inc supplies teddy bears to those grieving including parents suffering the loss of a child, children who have lost a parent or grandparent or anyone during this dark time. We also give bears to inpatients of all ages from newborns to end of life adults. Supporting hospital needs including donating memory making items, craft supplies, grief books, holiday decorations and much more is one of our missions. Last, but certainly just as important we give self-care items to healthcare workers. It is important they remember to take time to care for themselves.

why we do what we doOn September 26, 2017, Tucker Mullen was born. He was a perfectly beautiful little boy. One month later he would be diagnosed with left ventricular non-compaction, a rare form of cardiomyopathy. Tucker was sent to Children's National in DC. He received amazing care. It was the hope that with medication and close observation he would do well. Unfortunately, in December of 2017 Tucker's heart condition grew more severe. He would be admitted to the CICU at Children's, there he would spend the next 3 1/2 weeks. Tucker passed on January 7, 2018 in his Mommy's arms surrounded by his family. |
