Hi
i have a real memory problem to it was more notaciable when i was at school as i was not able to copy the stuff from the bord quike enough and by the time i got home i could never remember what i had to do. I also find it haed to remember what someone has told me for instance someone can tell me something then walk away and i have forgetten what they have told me or when someone gives me drextions or the a adress and a name of the street i will get it wrong because all i can remember is the first letter of the name. It get really fustrating as i am at college just now and i am having to do alot of essays and if i am asking for help i forget what my lecture has said by the time they have walked 2 steps away from me and i dont want to say to them as i think they will get very annoyed as i would have to do it all the time.

Ashley,
I hear you. My frustrations are very simular to yours.
School was a nightmere for me. The ensycopedia saved me many times. Sometimes I would just get a very general
idea of what the teacher was discussing then go home and research the whole topic just in the hopes that I wouldn't miss the teacher's lecture.
It is nice to know there are other people in the world that suffer with these same problems. Well "nice" is not the right word, but, it does help. Thank you for writing to me. I hope the best for you. I have a Franklin spell check, that I use all the time. Could you also tape the lessons with a small tape recorder?
Let me know how it goes,
Kim
