When you have time, take a few minutes out of your day and watch/listen to this. What a story. Uplifting. This is almost unbelievable.


Derek, a musical genius and nephew of Camilla Parker Bowles, plays the piano like you've never heard.

Yet, he doesn't know his age, nor does he know how to hold up three fingers! Also, he is blind!

Couldn't you see the love in his Dads face?

Absolutely amazing!Great that his family were in a position to support and encourage him.Made me think of Helen Keller and others who overcame disabilities and went on to do do so much good in their lives. Truly uplifting and humbling. Thank you,pusskin.

I enjoyed that - thanks for posting it pusskin.

Not so many years ago a person with such a disability would have been locked up in some sort of institution - thankfully times have changed a little.

Many thanks indeed Pusskin. I have just played this and was gobsmacked. Wonderful. Nature works in some very strange and wonderful ways.
