Zoological Gardens Hanover: Unexpected visitor causes instant reaction from a monkey
In a heartwarming display of resilience and love, 40-year-old Sabrina, a terminally ill woman, recently spent a remarkable day at Hannover Zoo with her family. The Wunschwagen Lower Saxony team, who were reporting on Sabrina's visit, described the sight at the zoo entrance as one that left Sabrina speechless.
Accompanied by two volunteers, Sabrina, her four children, and her large extended family embarked on a day filled with joy and wonder. Despite her illness significantly affecting her and limiting her time, Sabrina ignored her waning strength, pain, and discomfort to enjoy every moment with her loved ones.
The family's day at Hannover Zoo was filled with memorable experiences. They visited the Youkon Bay to see polar bears and Sabrina even enjoyed a portion of nuggets. A highlight of the day came when a chimpanzee sat in front of Sabrina's wheelchair at the monkey enclosure, seemingly sending her strength and good thoughts.
The children's joy brought Sabrina the most happiness, and the day ended with a special memento. The ASB crew at Hannover Zoo printed a photo featuring all her loved ones, which is now on Sabrina's bedside table in the hospice.
