Many people have extraordinary abilities that are frequently overlooked. Because neuro-divergent people might bring unexpected surprises to the table, this is especially true for them.
People who are neuro-divergent receive information differently than people who are neuro-typical. Those that have neurodivergence may develop exceptional talents as a result of this processing variation, which is not related to intellect.
A extraordinary 13-year-old, Lucy Illingworth embodies a special combination of abilities and problems. She is autistic and blind, yet she has a remarkable talent for using the piano to communicate herself. She may not be able to express herself verbally, but her music can.
At first, people were unconcerned when Lucy sat at a piano in a public area. But the moment her fingers touched the keys, the mood changed, and crowds came to see her mesmerizing performance.
Candice Flynn saw her daughter’s extraordinary aptitude early on. Lucy seemed to play the piano with ease, thus her mother fostered this talent.
Lucy, who was just 12 years old, competed in the UK music competition show The Piano, where she not only displayed her talent but also won first place, winning the respect of millions of people in the process.
Candace revealed that Lucy discovered a toy piano keyboard when she was a little child. Candace discovered her kid had a unique skill when Lucy performed Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star flawlessly, much to her surprise.
“As Lucy’s mother, my biggest wish for her is to be content, safe, and secure, while staying true to herself,” she said. I’ve always thought that I would completely support Lucy’s decision to leave the music industry if she ever made that decision! However, given how deeply Lucy and music are connected, I really can’t see it occurring.
She added that when her daughter sits at the keyboard, she changes into a new person.
“To be honest, I think Lucy is music—it’s like she has musical notes in her veins.”
