It hasn't been easy for an inseparable grandmother and granddaughter over the last couple of weeks.

Viera Zmiyiwsky normally visits her 94-year-old grandma, Anna, multiple times a week.

The retirement residence Ivan Franko Home in Mississauga isn't accepting visitors to protect the seniors from COVID-19.

Viera wanted to do something special for her grandmother to lift her spirits, so she planned a performance for her, selecting music that they listened to on records together when she was a child.

The moment brought them both to tears, and Viera ended up with a much bigger audience than she anticipated.
