Teddy Bear Necklace for Sale — Jeffrey K. Danowski

Like her great-great-grandmother, Hollyanna wears the Teddy Bear necklace with pride. The 5th-generation family heirloom has more sentimental value to her than it does monetary worth. Holly is on the top of the world with everything going her way. As a member of the United States Ski Team, Holly is among the world's best and favored to win the Gold Medal at the Olympics to be held in Jackson, WY in the coming year. Zephyr finds himself in the same position and is poised to do the same for the men's team. However, a tragic accident at the championships leaves Zephyr paralyzed, his Olympic dreams unfulfilled while leaving his family with mounting medical bills. Longing for a way to help Zephyr and his family, Holly decides to sell the Teddy Bear Necklace to raise what money she can to help someone, who to this point, had been a mere acquaintance. Her act of kindness leads to a friendship she never expected, or ever thought was possible. At the Olympics, both had the experiences of a lifetime, worth more than Gold. Zephyr was wanting and hoping for more than friendship, something Holly is reluctant to commit to because of the distance that separates them. While Holly is struggling with her feelings, she finds out that Zephyr's struggles made the news, learning that her friend is fighting for his life. Holly had new worries now. Her intentions had always been good and had made good on her vow to sell the necklace which meant nothing to her now, relative to the life of her friend. She feared there was nothing or no one that could save him. As long as he was alive, there was still hope and she would offer her prayers to go along with that hope. What would their friendship be like from this day forward? The only one that knew the answer to that question was God. She would wait as long as it took for the answer to her prayer. Holly desperately hoped His plans allowed for her friendship with Zephyr to continue to grow. My name is Jeffrey K. Danowski and I am a published author and award-winning journalist.
