Helen Keller was born with hearing and sight. Helen had a fever for several days and she went to a doctor and they called it the "brain fever". Back then there were many diseases to worry about. The doctors said she probably won't survive. Helens fever had finally stopped at last after several days. No one, not even the doctors knew what the fever had done to Helen. The "brain fever" has caused Helen to become blind at 19 months. Days later, a bell rang which meant dinner, usually Helen comes running to the kitchen. Today she didn't. Kate Keller, her mom had made a rattle to shake in Helens ear and Helen didn't notice. Her mom found her daughter was not only blind but deaf also. Helen constantly threw temper tantrums because she could not understand anyone, and no one can understand her. Helen loved to pull pranks and she once locked her mom in the pantry for three hours and pushed her little sister out of a cradle.
Helens dad had visited Alexander Graham Bell, an expert on teaching speech to the deaf, to find a teacher to help Helen communicate and he said to ask Michael Anagnos. Later on, Michael found Helen a teacher, Anne Mansfield Sullivan. Anne had showed up at the Keller's house on March 3, 1887. Helen knew it was no ordinary day but not sure why. Anne had first taught Helen manners, and then started to spell words into her hand. Helen's first word she learned was water. By the end of the summer Helen had learned 625 words
