An ICU nurse and her mother have gone viral since a touching photo of the pair embracing each other was shared online. In a moment of spontaneity, the mother threw a bedsheet over her daughter’s head and pulled her close for a reassuring hug.

Kelsey Kerr, 28, is an ICU nurse at Christ Hospital in Cincinnati, Ohio. Both of her parents are in their mid-sixties with underlying health conditions, meaning that close contact during the global CCP virus pandemic could be risky. The two have been practicing social distancing with their daughter for a month now.
