Damien’s wish was to visit Australia Zoo
There’s something about being close to nature that brings happiness to the surface. Damien’s wish to visit Australia Zoo sought to capture this.
From watching Bindi at the Wildlife Warrior Croc Show to feeding giraffes, Damien was given the grand tour.
The giraffes stole the show for Damien, who was impressed by their calm demeanour (and endless appetite for carrots). Spending time up close and personal with them made for a truly unforgettable experience.
Filled with joy from the day, he even made a connection with the AWQ mascot, who he re-named ‘Xavier.’
Thank you to our wonderful wish team Danielle and Nicole for fulfilling Damien’s last wish and for creating memories forever for him.
Thank you to our service partner Sunshine Coast Hospital Health Services – Dove House Palliative Care and the support of Australia Zoo on this special occasion.
