Margaret Thatcher's Battle with Dementia.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/thatchers-battle-with-dementia-by-her-daughter-907799.html

This is from a person who lives in Canada and shall remain nameless, but I liked the music so much that I wanted to share it with you. Like, I always said, 'Heaven is on Earth'!
