Heartwarming video of 'angel' nurse singing to dying patient goes viral

In the emotional viral video, Olivia Neufelder can be seen singing Margaret Smith’s favorite song as the dying patient laid in her bed.

Cancer patient Smith was told by the doctors at University Medical Center in Nashville, Tennessee, that her health was in excessively poor condition for a liver transplant, as reported by Metro.

The dedicated nurse Neufelder then decided to sing Dani and Lizzy's "Dancing In The Sky" to Smith consistently to make her feel better.

In October 2017, Smith's family friend, Crystal Hamilton Roberts, filmed the heart-wrenching moment Neufelder sings her favorite song as she holds her hand.
