Heart-warming moment terminal breast cancer patient gets surprise visit from her horse in hospice

Moment terminal breast cancer patient Catriona Craig gets visit from her horse in hospiceĀ 

Catriona Craig, who has been a keen rider since childhood, stroked her favourite horse Ed as her husband David and daughter Louise looked on at St Richard's Hospice in Worcester. The 62-year-old has terminal breast cancer and has been receiving care at the hospice for the last two weeks. Staff believe being close with animals can have a huge impact on a patient's well-being and supported David's idea for a reunion between his wife and Ed, a 20-year-old event horse.
