11月30日，法國加萊的安寧病房裡，患有轉移性癌症的24歲病患Marion，在馬匹Peyo的陪伴下擁抱她七歲的兒子Ethan。Peyo是一匹用於動物輔助治療的馬。

動物輔助治療（寵物療法）常用於臨床領域，尤其是心理治療以及安寧照護。動物可以幫助降低焦慮及壓力，還對其他生理機能有所助益，例如降低血壓、增強心律，並有助調節疼痛指數。在安寧照護中，施予此療法的目的是藉由人類與動物的自然連結，提供人們慰藉、平靜與陪伴。馬匹似乎特別適合協助安寧照護，因為他們對周遭環境尤其敏感。Peyo與牠的訓練師Hassen Bouchakour在「心之蹄」組織工作，該組織致力於動物輔助治療以及相關主題的科學研究。Peyo每個月協助大約20名病患。

Marion (24), who has metastatic cancer, embraces her son Ethan (7) in the presence of Peyo, a horse used in animal-assisted therapy, at a palliative care unit in Calais, France, 30 November.

Animal-assisted therapy (pet therapy) is used in many clinical environments, especially in psychological therapy and palliative care. Animals appear to be able to reduce anxiety and stress, and also to have physical effects, such as lowering blood pressure, improving heart rate, or helping in pain management. In hospices, the aim is to use the natural bond between humans and animals to provide comfort, peace, and companionship. Horses seem particularly suited for palliative care as they are especially in tune with their surroundings. Peyo works with his trainer Hassen Bouchakour at Les Sabots du Coeur, an organization devoted to animal-assisted therapy, and to scientific research into the subject. He supports around 20 patients each month.
