Helen Keller

On June 27, 1880, a healthy baby girl was born in a small town in
Alabama. Her parents loved her dearly and named her Helen Keller.

But one day (at the age of 19 months), the baby became ill and day
after day, her fever stayed high.

Everyone in the family tried to help her to get better, but all they could
say was, “There is nothing more we can do. The baby may not live.”

Helen lived. But she was not the same after her illness.
