dyslexia is part of my life it has follow me around for 53 year,i’m writing this using my tablets voice recognition software, hooray for technology, for without it this short note could of taken me hours, back in my school days there was no such thing as dyslexia, you were classed as a low achiever and put in a remedial class, you’d think that the teachers would get that we all had problems, oh no we would have to stand up in class and read aloud to our classmate, this usually meant i’d be standing there and maybe reading small words like and, in,the,but when it came to the long words i’d fall silent to the amusement of the rest of the class, these experiences stay with you for the rest of your life, the memories of them are etched no your brain, well time moves on and i decided to do something about it, so about 4 years ago i started reading fiction to date i’ve read over 100 books this has really helped me a lot in being able to read with more confidence but i still can’t spell to save my life, i believe it’s a never ending battle i will continue to read my books and hopefully improve, i will always be dyslexic, i am quite brilliant most things in life, even if i say so myself, i’ve got through life, i’ve been married i have two lovely children and lovely grandchildren, but i still feel i could of achieved more, it’s never too late hope this helps cheers.
