In the middle of the service, the child quietly stood up, went to their mother’s coffin, and pressed their ear against it.

 

This heartbreaking photo shows a young boy from the Philippines trying to climb into his mother’s coffin for one last embrace. Taken by relatives at the funeral and shared on Facebook, the image moved many to tears.

“Why doesn’t Mommy sleep next to me anymore?” he asked — a question that shattered hearts.

According to Perfect Media, the boy used a chair to reach her. No child should face such a loss. Cherish your loved ones always.
