PADERBORN, GERMANY – JULY 16: German Chancellor Angela Merkel speaks with residents during a visit to the St. Johannesstift senior care facility on July 16, 2018 in Paderborn, Germany. Merkel met Ferdi Cebi, a caregiver at the St. Johannesstift senior care facility, during her election campaign tour last year and accepted his invitation to visit him. Germany is struggling to provide adequate care for its growing population of elderly people.

And we might have another one on our hands!
Margaret Mackie is a beautiful soul who has dementia and lives in a senior care facility.
If you've ever had a family member with this crazy disease you probably know that they have moments of brilliance and memory, and many moments of nothing.
But one thing that always seems to come back, and doctors don't know why is MUSIC!
Well Margaret's caregiver, Jamie Lee Morley, is a musician, as well as a great guy.
And during the Christmas party at the senior care facility, he and Margaret sang a cover of Frank Sinatra's "My way"
It was posted on YouTube and he wrote in the description that every day at work they sing that specific song together, and it brightens up her day, as well as all of the other residents.
And it wasn't just the residents who loved the performance. The video went viral in the UK and the caregiver decided to bring 83 year old Margaret into the recording studio so she could belt out her favorite song in a professional setting!
He filmed her singing it, and released the music video right after Christmas (SEE BELOW!)
Guess what, it's already on the charts in the UK, ahead of artists like Ed Sheeran and James Blunt.
He's vowed to donate 100% of the money he makes off the song to the Dementia UK & Alzheimer's Society.
"It's been a very special moment for me and Margaret," Morley told CBS News. "The world needs this type of happy stories with all the bad stuff going on in the world."
