Hi to everyone
I am a 52 year old woman with dyslexia. I struggled all through school, I knew I had a problem but what it was, had no idea. Only in my early 40's I came across a book in the library about dyslexia, after reading it I knew that this was what I suffered from. Now it is not only me, but my brother who also suffers; only from a more severe form of dyslexia.Our mother also has dyslexia and so we must of inherited it from her. The learning disability has cause large problems for all three of us. I have only had a job for three years of my life and it was boring. I never got any further education and have struggled to find jobs. My brother and I made pottery till that died out because no one was interested any more. My brother turned to computers and found his niche but dyslexia is still a problem. Because he is to slow he does not get enough jobs to sustain a living.And he has to double even triple check his work.For me I have just given up, maybe I will write a book. Thank goodness for computers they help a lot. I wish they where a round when I was a school, I would of being an ace at school work. I just remembered something, how many of you where told to look in the dictionary for a word; and wondered how you where going to find the word if you could not spell or pronounce it correctly. What help is a dictionary to a Dyslectic?
