Nurse Bethany Varney guided her patient, Robert Wagner, through the Hospice Buffalo campus as part of their daily routine. One day, with the help of the facility and the Lothlorien Therapeutic Riding Center, Varney turned their typical outing into a memorable moment for the 81-year-old. As he was taking in the view of the blooming flowers, Wagner looked up from his wheelchair and spotted a horse. He has loved horses since he was a child. “It is scary during this time for the elderly and already compromised,” Varney told Spectrum News in Buffalo, New York. “So I thought it would be something to take away all of this craziness.”
