She Abandoned Her Deformed Baby In A Shoebox. 17 Years Later, He Brings The Judges To Tears

September 20, 2016

When Emmanuel Kelly was a little boy growing up in Iraq, he and his brother were found by nuns inside a shoe box as the war raged on around them. The brothers were both born with severely underdeveloped limbs due to the chemical warfare in their community.

Without the proper care they so desperately needed, the nuns brought Emmanuel and his brother Ahmed to an orphanage.

17 years later, Emmanuel performed his emotional rendition of John Lennon's "Imagine" which moves the judges and the entire audience to tears.
