I don't understand. The bear smelled like something, but I don't know what? Sound was sort of hard to hear. Explain it to me.

Before Crawford was born, her mother received a teddy bear as a baby shower gift. The stuffed animal came to be known as Whitey. As a kid, Crawford loved this toy. But the wear and tear that teddy bears go through eventually caught up with Whitey, and he became disfigured, losing half of his stuffing in the process.
Alli sprung into action and took the bear to the Secaucus Doll and Teddy Bear Hospital. The company repairs stuffed animals and other toys. According to the Hudson Reporter, Luis and Ana Casas of Bogota, Colombia, started the company seven years ago.
“No patients ever die here,” Ana once told a customer, as reported by the paper. “They always go home healed and looking fit.”
In a video of Crawford opening her present, Alli notes that it took the hospital about a week to mend Whitey. In addition to replacing the stuffing, the teddy bear needed his head stitched back on, new eyes, a nose, and an ear.
But judging by Crawford’s reaction, it was all worth it.
It's her childhood bear.. repaired and given new life, but he still smells like her bear. Everyone knows the smell of their Teddy...
Damn... something in my eye again...
