Dozens of residents at Dickinson nursing home in Dickinson, Texas have been rescued after a photo of them sitting in water went viral.

UPDATE: They seem to be high and dry now! Looking good, ladies!

Residents were reportedly rescued by helicopter Sunday afternoon after this photo went viral.

The owner of the nursing home sent the photo of the elderly people in waist deep water to a family member in hopes that someone would see it on Twitter---And they did.

Luckily help got there before it was too late and 20-25 residents were evacuated.
