A cute little girl’s kind gesture brought a smile back to her great grandma’s face who is in the advanced stages of Dementia and she can be startled by unfamiliar people.
This 5-year-old girl, Sophie Flynn from Ireland, just met her great grandma Brenda Brock, 82, for the first time and she broke the ice by singing “You Are My Sunshine” to her. The family were a little nervous at first that the little princess wouldn’t understand why her great grandma is not acting like everyone else. But she took everyone by surprise when, instead of being frightened by her granny’s condition, she warmed up to her instantly.
“Sophie brought her back to life,” Sophie’s mother, Sarah Miller said. “It was amazing, we just couldn’t believe it. When they were together it was like they were the only two people in the room.”
The entire song was captured by Sophie’s grandpa, Sandy Miller, who uploaded the video to YouTube where it has since gotten over 750 thousand views.
Just watch her sing. Her singing just melted my heart.
