Chris, you and your parents are a beautiful blessing to this world.

God's purpose in his life is so obvious! God's love shines so bright through what seems to us like eternal darkness

[lilblake90]

He is truly blessed by God.

@MiaMccB ~ gifts such as these are unquie to an individual in itself. For example, Stevie Wonder and a few others are just blessed with a God given talent. Being as such blind and autistic, doesn't limit them to such but turning around and giving honor to whom whom is due, the creator of all, God himself.blind and autism

I hope this isn't offensive, but how does he play piano if he is blind? Does he have some vision so that he can see just enough to play? Or does he just hear the music and know what to do? He is an amazing pianist and singer, you are lucky that you adopted such a wonderful boy and that you get to have him in your life :)

@MiaMccB I am guessing the same way Stevie Wonder learned to play. I have a feeling that in both cases it is basically key memorization. BTW, I don't think your question was offensive at all... I saw it as a honest question born out of genuine curiosity. :)

@MiaMccB You play keys with your fingers not your eyes. Ray Charles search him up piano icon blinded since he was a kid, died a legend so.

[Debz1990]

@MiaMccB It's like how does a blind person read, they feel the braille, when your playing music without sight it takes alot to remember where the keys are, but it just comes, theres also an element of hearing the notes too, its difficult enough to learn though so fair play Chris!
