Four Fingered Pianist
59,560 views
Born with only four fingers and no legs below the knee, 20 year old Hee-ah Lee is an inspiration to all who know her. Although she began playing the piano at age 7 for therapeutical purposes, she has now become a concert pianist! Disfigured since birth, her mother cared for her as if she were perfect and today, she eats, walks and uses the adjusted piano pedals on her own. "You play with your heart and head--not your fingers," Hee-ah says.

However, I was disturbed to see that her mother commented on her being fat! This is rediculous. I am appalled to see the Four Fingered Pianist is another casualty of the war on obese people. This horrible prejudice hurts both large and small alike.
And I really commend the mother for loving her daughter and keeping her despite everyone else's discouragement! :)
