A New York family driving home from a trip to Disney World is now desperately trying to find their 3-year-old little girl’s teddy bear. They think the bear was possibly lost in South Carolina and they are offering a $500 reward for its safe return.
The girl’s mother, Amy Earley, posted on Facebook that the teddy bear went missing while the family was heading home from Orlando last week.
“We lost a stuffed bear traveling home from vacation 4/13,” she wrote in her post. “Stayed at Comfort Suites in Rock Hill and then started north on I77. We think he may have made his way out the window between the hotel and exit 30ish (when we realized he was no longer with us.)”
Earley said her daughter and the stuffed animal have never been apart since the day she was born. “My three-year-old daughter has never been a day without this bear and is completely heartbroken and breaking mine!” she wrote.
The internet has reacted with heartbreak as well and people have even been out scouring the area looking for it. “Drove I77 today to 485,” one comment said, “I’ll keep looking!”
Early thinks that the bear made his way out of the truck when her husband let the windows down to help with the kids’ car sickness. They have called and checked with the hotel they stayed at and had no luck.
