One teenager is helping with the grieving process for local law enforcement in a very special way here in Central Florida. Megan O'Grady, a 14-year-old girl who created the non-profit organization Blue Line Bears, delivered a very special gift Monday morning.

Blue Line Bears was created to help the children of fallen officers as they specialize in creating a teddy bear wearing the uniform of the fallen officer.

At 10 a.m. O'Grady paid a visit to the Orlando Police Department where she presented a bear to a fallen officer's son.

Lieutenant Debra Clayton was killed in the line of duty back on January 9th. On Monday, her son Johnny Brinson received the special bear from O'Grady.

Teddy bears didn't seem to help after Manchester either. That kid's a little old for stuffed animals to have any impact.

But nobody tells the well-meaning girl that; it would interrupt the 'healing process' or some such stage of the mandatory weepathon.
