when i first saw this video as kid i kept wondering why she couldnt talk, since the doctor didnt say she was mute. but now i know DUH if you never hear what words sound like and dont understand spelling i guess its pretty impossible to say something.
Helen lost her sight and hearing when she was only 18 months old. A fact this show gets very, very wrong! It's in all the historical facts about her, Shame o Discovery for getting it so wrong.
pour lil qirl i wish i could help her bt her dad nd teww let the woman do her job nt her :) i wish i canhelp all jus have teww do iz askx the lord thats it
It has nothing to do with being blind. People who are deaf perfer not to speak because they can not hear what they are saying. Words just come out as if you have cotton in your mouth.
@Xiaomux, she lost her hearing and sight before she was old enough to begin talking, therefore, she never heard speaking, and was never able to process the connection until she became educated.
@TheOfficialErin You can hear talking before you can speak. A baby starts hearing at 5 months in the womb. Therefore, she did hear speaking and and was able to respond like all babies do until she got sick.
@fallenangel11891 Yes all babies can hear or almost all babies and they respond by babbling.Giberish but baby language and sometimes they say words such as "Ma""pa"etc...Helen was 19 months when she got sick so she could talk at this age.And knew many words but when she lost hearing and sight she lost language and later she learnt how to talk.And maybe her subconscious kept a few words she later could say with her mouth.
@ISavageBadgerI u have never heard of the diary of anne frank?.... u usually refer to it around the time in school wen learning about the holocaust..... its a play/movie.... very gud actually
This is the kind of cartoon I watched when I was little. We didn't get Cartoon Network. When I tell people that, they're like "Oh my god, how did you grow up without ever watching Recess?" Well, I watched animated versions of Helen Keller, Little Women, Charlotte's Web, Anne of Green Gables, Tom Sawyer, etc. And strangely enough, I don't feel like I missed out on anything or had a less than wonderful childhood. XD
@Nicopelli123 Das ist kein "scheiß" sondern gehört mit zu einer soliden Allgemeinbildung. Wenn man keine Dinge vom Discover Education Channel sehen möchte... kann man ja auch bei Youtube Stichworte wie "Teletubbies" eingeben...
@ Nicopelli 123 That is no "crap" it is part of a basis of a normal education in our-days. If you do not like airings from the Dicover Education Channel... just use Youtube's Search Programme with Keywords like "Teletubbies"...
the begining of this whole movie is fake helen lost her eye sight and hearing wen she was a baby not a toddler and the doctor didnt kno she was blind or deaf
@molls131 no actually she wasnt, after 19 months of her birth, she then contracted an illness described by doctors as an acute congestion of the stomach and the brain, which might have been scarlet fever or meningitis. The illness did not last for a particularly long time, but it left her deaf and blind.
@NatureLover987 Yeah that's what I'm saying, they got this all wrong. She never called him Arthur in the original movie or in the play or in the books and most likely not in real life. So funny you should comment
In those days fevers were dangerous cuz they didn't have antibiotics etc. And the cartoon has it wrong--- she was MUCH younger when she got the fever, almost a baby. Even today, if a baby gets a fever, it can be dangerous . And she got it for a long time, caused brain damage.
@Slushation not for too long though, it did leaver her deaf and blind (the fever caused by a encerpherlitis? menigitis? afffected her nerves), but her will to learn and study was there and it did not leave her mentally affected. Best E.
@NatureLover987 I dont' know what to think, but I DO think it IS a little far fetched. Is that how it really happened? or were you just kidding? roflmao
@kumoD11 Helen only could express herself this way,by grunting noises.In one book helen was told to grunt like a dog,because she desperately tried to talk with her family and couldn't hear her voice.It is sad!She stopped grunting this way when Ann arrived and tought her to communicate.
