Ruth,
I�m 27 and struggle with being dyslexic. After reading your message I can totally relate to how you feel. I remember being in school and anytime we had to take a test the teacher would approach me and ask if I wanted to take my test in the �Learning Center� because there I could have someone read the test to me, talk about humiliating when the classmates that sat next to me overheard that, and much like you said�heaven forbid my friends walk by and see me in there! About 9 months ago I was sitting at my desk at work and decided to start researching about any support groups in my area that I could attend and I ended up finding a group not to far from while I lived. I�d told myself that if there was one close I would take it upon myself to go and I wouldn�t speak about it to anyone. Well�.I called number provided on the website only to find out that do to budget cuts the class had been cancelled and they weren�t sure if it would start up again. Honestly, as much as I was disappointed, apart of my was relieved. Facing this issue has not being easy for me whatsoever and I really do hope I will get that chance to attend if and when it starts up again. I know we are strangers, but if I was in your home town I�d go with ya because the feeling is mutual. I hope you go�I�m rootin for ya!
