Meet My Imaginary Friend: "Jamshed"

For those who had read my last discussion, let me introduce my Jamshed. He was my imaginary friend when I had my medical mission In Tajikistan in 2010. I got him from a colleague in this country. Since I am living alone in my apartment, I created him as my imaginary friend. I talked and planned with him on how to accomplish my real purpose in this country. I must say that we had a great time together. He looks scary dummy in this photo but he had helped many children with impairments or disabilities under my supervision a decade ago. To cut it short, I left him there because they need him. Do you like soft toys? Have you ever talked with your Teddy bears or soft toys before or even now?

Hmmm... you might like reading about a friend I talked about on myLot years ago, Shavkat... If I've already given you this link, you can ignore it this time. If I haven't, you can get the full story of the friends Pretty and I made almost a lifetime ago by reading through the comments on the discussion. It is my second discussion still extant on myLot. For the full story on our friends you will need to scroll down to @pgntwo 's box and read it.
I opened the door and stared in disbelief! All I could do was look at the obvious signs of violence done to the old and fragile body. What should have been...

@pgntwo A Happy New Year to you, pgn! What type of phone are you using now? (I've got a Motorola G7 Power.) Uhm... yeah, I've been reading about how they haven't fully tested the new vaccines and that one of the ex-Pfizer officials has claimed that we will all be sterilized if we accept the vaccines now in trials... I can't have kids anymore, so that wouldn't bother me. But I am wondering if I am going to live to see the end of humanity.

A Happy New Year to you! HTC One Mini - oh the memories! ?? I found this worth a share a little while ago - hope you know about getting vaccinated against COVID-19 wherever you are!
Tess has always loved this song since learning it at school a few years back - Leonard Cohen's incredible Hallelujah (1984) - and it's always fit beautifully...

That's great! You have been collecting them. I have a childhood friend who collects Hello Kitty's soft toys.

I grew up poor, so I do not remember having plush toys or stuffed toys. I think the only time I ever had some was when I was a teenager and started to receive gifts from suitors. Jamshed does look creepy, I think I will be terrified having it in my bedroom.

When my siblings and I were kiddies, we don't have fancy toys in our hands. We are not the rich kids as they tagged in the old days. Jamshed looks scary, but I left it with a face. My loyal translator drew his face, but I cannot find a photo of him with a face.

I can imagine Jamshed being a comfort to children. He doesn't look at all scary to me.

I think he is a friendly dummy. He has his own face but I cannot find a photo. He is not scary with a face.

How long you stayed there? You're working with children who have CP, my guess. You're a PT.

@ZedSmart I have some friends who are working in STAC. My previous work experience is in the hospital. When I went to Tajikistan, I was a consultant. I am saying it modestly. I was there because of an outbreak.

I got it. I thought most kids in foreign countries do have them during their childhood years.
