Can this become any more sad when we are only able to comfort our loved ones through a window, phone or tablet? Then I am also so thankful that we can even do that. She saw her son’s face one last time – I pray she is in peace now.🙏

This is so heartbreaking. I can’t imagine the pain. Think about your families before you step out every day during this pandemic, and if you live alone then think about other people’s families.

"Paradise lies beneath the feet of your mother". Where Unconditional love, affection, mercy and respect and honour are reciprocated this is what happens. This act shows true devotion by the son and his beloved mum must be proud to see the legacy she has left from heaven 😇🤲💗⚘
