Name : Sya'irah
Age : 7 years old
Illness : Brain Tumour
Wish : To feed giraffes



Sya’irah is only seven years of age, and has been diagnosed with a brain tumour. Adorably petite, Sya’irah’s wish was to see the majestically tall giraffes and feed them. She is used to seeing chickens and feeding them at her house in Malacca, and all she wanted was an opportunity to feed the tallest animal in the world. With help from Zoo Negara officials, her wish became a reality!


Her two-day trip to Kuala Lumpur began on a high note when Flamingo Hotel Ampang surprised her with a birthday cake as she stepped into the hotel lobby. She just turned seven a few days before, so a cake to celebrate is befitting for her arrival. Sya’irah was all smiles and could not hold in her excitement when she saw animal-themed decorations in her hotel room!


The next day, Sya’irah had a fun-filled day at the zoo, where she had the opportunity to feed the giraffes, and was left in awe at how gentle they were! She also got to say hello to some of her other favourite animals, and wore a million dollar smile on her face the entire day.


Thank you to Mr Azmin Othman from Dockwise for adopting Sya’irah’s special wish, and Zoo Negara and Flamingo by the Lake Ampang who helped make her wish a memorable one!
