在挪威有一名老翁,自小就已經是一個「愛馬氏」,結果在他臨終前一刻,其孫女把其心愛的小馬帶到病床前,與主人告別,場面感人。

89歲的Karl Holmen在晚年常因病於療養院卧床,但他還身體健康時,經常都會到孫女Susan的家拜訪,順便見見其飼養了10多年的小馬Bolla,故Susan打算在爺爺臨終前給他一個驚喜。

她與一名療養院職員事先約好,帶小馬Bolla進入療養院探望爺爺,而Bolla亦非常有靈性,知道那裏不是牠可以喧鬧的地方,表現得十分平靜,院友見到有馬匹進入都表現十分開心,而最開心的當然是老翁Karl Holmen。

爺爺完成了其中一個遺願之後,結果在幾日後離世,Susan把Bolla探爺爺病的照片放上網後,引起各界迴響,更有傳媒爭相希望訪問她,不過Susan坦言希望各界能夠尊重,現時只欲平心替爺爺進行葬禮。
