Welcome to my life. I am 58 years old AND functioning with pseudo dyslexia, as I would put it since getting screeds for professional reports.

Well, some harsh people may say that I an not function that well, if they put time and "results", not quality first.

Check out my conversation with Sarah. May be you have a different view to add to our "Public Sphere".

Author: just me [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 09:05:51 07/08/09 Wed I'm not sure if you are as angry and bitter as you sound. All I can say is we all deal with the hand we are given and must do the best we can. I feel that my dyslexia as hindered me in many however it has molded my personality and given me the ability to be understanding of others.

My comment was meant in humour. I do have trouble with my dictation program -- may be more than I realise. I really thought you might help or have a good suggestion for Sarah. I think it is a shame when we misunderstand each other. The rest of the world is way different again and that makes it harder for them to see our view of the world.

There were a few gliches in my last 'effort'. I must have been tired. I guess that's when I miss more errors. I'll keep trying to contribute, but life gets busy and we have to priorise other things.
