What is the gift that Annie brings to Helen?

Annie Sullivan gave Helen the gift of communication, empathy and understanding; she introduced the whole world to Helen and illuminated her dark life. Helen learned to "sign" and spell Words in Annie's hand; Annie taught her to read Braille and opened the world of language to a deaf, blind girl. An Excellent movie to see about this is "The Helen Keller Story" with Anne Bancroft and a very young Patty Duke as Helen, b&w,circa 1962.
