Not a dry eye in the house

Heartbreaking farewell to two seriously ill patients

There wasn't a dry eye in the house: After seven weeks apart, a seriously ill palliative patient visited her 16-year-old cat, who is also ill and being cared for by a vet - perhaps for the last time. This was made possible by the Rolling Angels, who took the lady from Wels to Aschach. 

A farewell that left not a dry eye in the house. The best friend of the very elderly Mrs. Lucia had contacted the Rolling Angels: The lady has been in the palliative care ward of the Wels hospital for several weeks and her strength is dwindling daily. Nevertheless, her thoughts are all about her velvet paw, which, also seriously ill, has been in the care of a vet in Aschach an der Donau for seven weeks.

The cat was also visibly marked by the illness, but was well cared for at the vet's practice.(Bild: Rollende Engel)

Great joy of reunion
The elderly lady's last wish was to visit her cat once again. Within a few hours, the wish fulfillers from the Rolling Angels picked up Mrs. Lucia. When they arrived at the vet, the joy of seeing her again was immense. The cat snuggled up to her owner and purred. Tears of joy ran down her cheeks.

Vet waived the bill
She asked the vets about the condition of her velvet paw and wanted to pay the outstanding bills, but the vet waived the costs. After a heartfelt farewell, the wish granters took Ms. Lucia back to the hospital - reassured that her four-legged companion was also in good hands.
