These majestic creatures symbolize grace and strength, yet have a gentle, powerful nature. Horses for seniors provide a unique opportunity for connection and companionship. Senior living residents don\u2019t typically have opportunities to spend time with horses but our residents did, just a few weeks ago. This heartwarming special event was part of Arabella of Red Oak\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.civitasseniorliving.com\/arabella-of-red-oak\/our-passion\/miracle-moments\/\">Miracle Moment<\/a> program.<\/p><h2>Nancy\u2019s Miracle Moment: A Surprise Farm Visit and Unbridled Happiness<\/h2><p>A horse lover at heart, Nancy had a ranch farm of her own and raised horses for fun. She didn\u2019t know she\u2019d be receiving an unforgettable honor that day \u2013 at an especially meaningful event. She was chosen as the recipient because of her helpful, vivacious nature for life, and truly great spirit.<\/p><figure id=\"attachment_5898\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5898\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"blog-80 wp-image-5898 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.civitasseniorliving.com\/arabella-of-red-oak\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2023\/11\/arabella-of-red-oak-nancy-and-her-horse.jpeg\" alt=\"Arabella of Red Oak | Nancy petting her horse\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.civitasseniorliving.com\/arabella-of-red-oak\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2023\/11\/arabella-of-red-oak-nancy-and-her-horse.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/www.civitasseniorliving.com\/arabella-of-red-oak\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2023\/11\/arabella-of-red-oak-nancy-and-her-horse-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.civitasseniorliving.com\/arabella-of-red-oak\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2023\/11\/arabella-of-red-oak-nancy-and-her-horse-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.civitasseniorliving.com\/arabella-of-red-oak\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2023\/11\/arabella-of-red-oak-nancy-and-her-horse-768x512.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5898\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Arabella of Red Oak Senior Living resident and horse lover Nancy M. had a Miracle Moment with a new friend.<\/figcaption><\/figure><p>\u201cIt was a surprise for Nancy, because she thought we were just going to groom horses,\u201d explained Megan Tobias, the Independent Living Community Relations Director at Arabella of Red Oak. \u201cThis is her passion, and she\u2019s missed them so much.\u201d Nancy was delighted to see a welcome banner and everyone wearing Miracle Moment ribbons that day.
