I am a Teddy Bear rucksack. I was bought on 26th August 1997 whilst my owner was in Belgium. She could not resist my expressive face. She, (Debra) breathed life into me. The moment our eyes met I 'was'. At last I had found my Medium; my instrument of communication. For although I have a voice, I have no mouth to articulate it. As well as being my adoptive mummy, friend and owner, Debra is my medium. How it works is my voice leaves my body then my aura - which is an energy field around the body - goes through the earth's energy field, is then absorbed by Debra's aura before going into her voice-box and out of her mouth.

My owner Debra, started writing short stories based on me hoping to publish them as a book, but this has fallen by the wayside and this website - which started as a marketing tool for writing the stories - has taken over the book idea and has come into its own over time.

Edit April 2009 - Debra has now written a book about her travels with Bearsac.

Edit 29/2/06: We have just edited this page to add something that may be useful for people to know about Debra.

Debra has Asperger's syndrome. Although mild and high functioning it still gives her difficulties in some situations and may lead people to feel offended if they don't understand. One thing we want to point out about Asperger's syndrome is some people have greater difficulty than average recognising peoples faces. Debra has this difficulty but recognises people in other ways that act as prompts to her which may or may not prompt her when she sees them. Please do not be offended. Please also note that we will often say hello to you if we are not sure if we know you (just in case we do). I (Bearsac) tend to say hello to everyone anyway as I'm a friendly teddy but it's in part to do with the difficulty Debra has and compensating for that. It is maybe too part of a repetitive behavior trait related to Asperger's and a fascination in human behavior and reaction that we both share.

Please read Debra's Asperger's syndrome page and the links from it for more idea of Asperger's syndrome.

You laugh at me because I'm different. I laugh at you because you're all the same

Please click on the different objects on the island to find your way around this website. It is mostly about Bearsac, but if you click on the woods/trees you will come to general teddy bear items like a teddy bear problem page and a teddy bear campaigning page, you can also have your favorite teddy bear appear on the Guest Bear if you want.
