Dyslexia




My grand-children are in preschool, first and third grades. Every day they learn something new. School for them is very exciting and sometimes a bit stressful learning the many things that they need to know. In the years to come my hopes is that they read and write with ease. For some learning to read and write is something that they will always struggle with. Dyslexia affects 5 to 10% of the entire world's population. 

October is Dyslexia Awareness month. It is a chance to draw attention to the fact that reading and writing does not come easy for all of us. Those with dyslexia look at a page of text and see distorted letters that swirl before their eyes. They struggle with distinguishing the letter "b" from the letter "d". Individuals with dyslexia find life a bit harder as the world is full of written informtion. 

The German physician Oswald Berkhan identified Dyslexia in 1881. Rudolph Berlin would name the disorder diagnosed by Dr. Berhan "dyslexia" The discovery of dyslexia has helped physicians world round to help those with dyslexia manage it.
