The Diabetes Puzzle

Mom started doing the coca cola polar bear puzzle last year right about the time I got diabetes. It finally got finished the other day - she said every time she worked on it she remembered the week I was very very sick and had to go into the hospital from my diabetes.

Mom's favorite animal, believe it or not, is not an American Eskimo dog but a polar bear! She can't have one as a pet so guess why she got us white doggies?

A couple of weeks ago when we were walking along the canal, a little boy pointed at me & Casper and told his father we looked liked little polar bears. Mom was thrilled!

Mom would have never finished that puzzle without the help of Bear's mom Kay. The "top" part was very very hard and Kay came over and worked on it every so often.

Now they are doing a puzzle called "1000 places to see before you die" - hmmm....
