First, some 70-75 years ago, this poor woman was collected and transported to a concentration camp.

No, she didn't. Calling her a "Holocaust survivor" is somewhat misleading; she was evacuated to Britain in 1939 with other Jewish children. Members of her family died in the Holocaust.

Thanks for posting that. I would have thought that when she was called a “Holocaust survivor” that she was in a concentration camp. That will teach me to believe idiot reporters (but I repeat myself). Wikipedia confirms that you are correct.

Which means that I now have a lot less sympathy for her.
