Oh, my goodness! My daughter is just now studying for her GED at 25 so she can go to college. Dyslexia can slow ya down, but one thing about you very bright people is that you do persevere! I'm so proud of all of you!
My daughter and her dyslexic friends helped me write a phonetic dictionary JUST FOR ALL OF YOU! You can spell pedal = pedl - if you want or spell 'physical' fisukol or however and this spell checker will find your word. The book is at www.gabbyswordspeller.com and the new application is on Android and www.wordspeller.com
You will be amazed! I promise! In the meantime, let me tell you this...we're all faking it till we make it! So hava fun, conquer your dreams, fear is an illusion!
