Meet Peyo, the 15-year-old stallion who spends his days doing the rounds inCalais Hospitalin France.
He helps provide comfort to cancer patients who are nearing the end of their lives.
After shows, Peyo would pick people out in a crowd and stay close to them.
Bouchakour later realized that he was instinctively choosing people that were sickeither physically or mentally.
Hospitals are sterile environments, so Bouchakour has to spend around two hours preparing Peyo for each visit.
I accompany him but I let him do what he wants, hes the one who decides.
Not only does Peyo help the sick, hes also a true friend to his handler.
Peyo is my other half, he is my life partner, Bouchakour admits.
He is everything to me.
