She was not born blind and deaf; it was not until nineteen months of age that she came down with an illness described by doctors as "an acute congestion of the stomach and the brain," which could have possibly been scarlet fever or meningitis.

I believe she was born that way, I remember in the movie she had to be taught to sign when she was around 10yrs. or so.
