93-year-old grandmother’s sweet message to her family becomes internet sensation

Her daughter starts the video by asking her mother to send a message to her family.

“Hello everybody,” she says with a smile and a little laugh. 

“I’m still here. Like a bad penny, there’s no getting rid of me,” she said. 

“I hope you’re all keeping well and doing what you’re told. Keep to the rules and you’ll all be fine. It’ll all pass,” she said, referring to COVID-19.

“Bye-bye for now. I love you all and think about you a lot,” she concludes.
