There's nothing like a mother's love right?

27-year-old Ralph Udeaja recently shared a video of him unraveling his mother's braids that received more than 67,000 views and melted our hearts. His mother, Gloria Ofoha, 56, who suffers from depression and bipolar disorder was recently hospitalized an, once released, she went missing.

Ralph then used social media to help locate her and the post went viral. Since then, he's been updating his followers on his mother and her condition. The internet loved this precious moment between the two, with followers commenting, "take good care of the queen" and "made my heart smile." He even brought some to tears.

“When I found her, I could tell she had been homeless since she left the hospital. She hadn’t taken a bath and her hair was very rough and tangled,” Ralph says. “I had to bathe her because she was too weak to bathe herself, and then I had to make sure that I washed her hair well. The video I posted was to let everyone know that I have found her and that she was in good hands now. I didn’t realize that it would get so much attention — everybody seemed to love it,” Ralph told Yahoo Lifestyle.

Today, Ralph posted his latest video where he fixed up his mother's edges — and made sure they were laid of course! The two have such an unbreakable bond and are definitely the cutest.
