Brazilian pianist João Carlos Martins lost the ability to be able to move his fingers but the help of a pair of bionic gloves he was finally able to play again after 20 years!! This is such a heartwarming story, I was actually watching the Christmas Bow last night which inspired me to post this!! If you haven’t seen the Christmas Bow I highly recommend!!!

Following several injuries Brazilian pianist João Carlos Martins lost the ability to move his fingers.

But after more than 20-years of being unable to play — a pair of “bionic” gloves are bringing him back.

He’s crying. I’m crying. You’re crying…pic.twitter.com/X7g6qU4zDR
