That being so her soft toys became something she could relate to one of which was a panda.Now 36 and receiving full-time care, Kristina still holds onto her panda, alongside a tiger, an elephant, and a bear. These toys, enduring symbols of her childhood, serve as the inspiration for three additional fables to follow Placid Pamela.
