A video of a carer dancing with his elderly patient to cheer her up has sparked two family reunions after it has been shared across the globe.
When Lee Holdroyd, 28, noticed elderly resident Pat was feeling so down a cup of tea would not suffice, he decided the situation called for some medicine for the soul - music.
And now, after the footage reached as far as Canada, Pat's long-lost brother has got in touch - after the siblings have spent 70 years apart.
Knowing how much Pat, who is in her 80s, loves a good song and dance, Lee put on sixties classic The Monkees' Daydream Believer to lighten her mood.
Within moment the elderly lady, who is a resident at Wansbeck Care Home in Choppington, Northumberland, was up on her feet singing and swaying to the music with senior carer Lee.
A colleague filmed the touching scene on Lee's mobile and shared it on social media on 10 September - with the footage racking up 275,000 views in just two days.
Lee said: "Pat was a bit restless and upset which just happens sometimes with all the residents as they've got different aches and pains because of their age.
"It's really unlike Pat to get quiet and down as she's normally the life and soul of the place so I made her a cup of tea but that didn't help.
"She absolutely loves a song and dance so I put on The Monkees and got her up. It worked a charm - she was right as rain in no time.
"They say music is medicine for the soul and dancing is the best kind of distraction so I just thought why not?
"My colleague filmed it because our manager has asked us to try to get some video of all the activities we do here at Wansbeck. We never expected it to get this big.
"It has been shared so many times, it's crazy. People think it is a big deal and I can understand that with all the negative stuff you hear about care homes.
"But I really see every resident like a family member and I want them to be as happy and content as possible.
"Every individual is different and they like different things. Music and dancing has been a big part of Pat's life so if that was what was going to get her back to her bubbly self then that's what we do."
The footage spread so far it reached Pat's brother Ron, who she has not seen for nearly 70 years, as he emigrated to Canada after WWII.
Ron's daughter Leah Jordana set about tracking down her dad's family in the UK, and Pat and Ron have now spoken on the phone with Wansbeck home planning to set up a videolink so they can see each other.
Leah said: "Dad watched the video of Pat singing and dancing and he was very moved."
And the video has not only touched Ron's heart but also inspired Lee's estranged big brother John to reach out and tell his sibling how 'proud' of him he is.
Lee added: "We had a big falling out years ago and we've not spoken since. It was really sad losing touch with him and before you know it so much time has passed.
"But when John saw the video of me and Pat dancing he sent me a message saying 'I'm proud of you'. It meant so much.
"Now we're fully back in touch and we're even planning to meet up and go to the pub for a drink. It's incredible.
"I didn't think anything of having a dance with Pat at the time but actually this video is so powerful it's brought two families back together."
Lee decided to become a carer after helping his mum Sue Holdroyd, 49, look after his gran Amy Raine when she was dying of cancer during his GCSEs.
He started off as a care assistant at another home, also run by Four Seasons, before being transferred to Wansbeck in January.
In that time Lee has clearly formed a great bond with the residents and received high praise from his manager Denise Hyden who described his actions as 'spontaneous and beautiful'.
Lee said: "Helping my mum look after my gran when she was dying was really tough but it made me realise that I wanted everyone to be treated with that respect and love.
"Just because their elderly and in a home doesn't mean they don't deserve their dignity or a bit of enjoyment out of life.
"I really enjoy looking after people and want to make a difference to their lives and create special experiences for them in all sorts of small ways."
Denise said: "Pat is always the life and soul of any party and she loves to sing and dance.
"What Lee did was a spontaneous and beautiful thing, which is typical of him, although neither of them understand why the video has attracted so much attention and been shared so many times.
"It is the sort of thing that we do in this home. We provide around the clock care and although our activities coordinator had finished for the day, Lee and colleagues on duty in the evenings will often arrange different social activities for anyone who wants to join in."
