A video that as of Thursday had been viewed nearly five million times on Facebook, shows a white balloon float towards a distraught mother.
The balloon was near the coffin of her son who had died from cancer at the age of seven.
The balloon gets very close to the mother and she hugs it as it moves closer and around her before floating away.
Viewers have commented that the balloon is the child’s ghost trying to comfort the grieving woman.
