A little youngster, who is both blind and autistic, sings. His voice sent shockwaves through the crowd. Christopher Duffley, a blind autistic youngster of eleven years old, has a remarkable voice. That someone’s abilities are unaffected by their outward look is something he proves.
At the tender age of four, Christopher Duffley received a microphone. Despite being labeled as “significantly delayed” in speech, social interaction, and cognitive ability, he embarked on a musical journey that touched people all over the globe.
By the time he was 11 years old, he had become a YouTube star and was performing the national anthem at Fenway Park when just 10 years old. Christopher unwittingly started to motivate many individuals from diverse backgrounds. Chris never stopped telling us in his music and speeches that we have no limits; sometimes all we need is a little push in the right direction.
Drug exposure caused Christopher to be born weighing 1 pound 12 ounces. After five months in the intensive care unit, he was placed with a foster home. Just six months after he was found, his biological aunt brought him to New Hampshire and adopted him into her family. He had a fresh start ahead of him, but his struggles with complete blindness and significant delays would influence it.
