Thank you,so much ,Mathew,for this insight into You.

I'm old enough that the education and research system had yet to define what I have going on. I do know it's genetic, as my mom suffered worst than I do,and my son less than I do. Fading gene??

I read fast. What I often don't do is manually or vocally respond in proper order.

I recall sitting with senior English teacher,back in the Stone Age... my term paper in her hand ...and she must have known something wasn't right...

" What is this word?"

" The"

" spell it..."

" T H E" ( said vocally...it was apparently typed 'teh') as I looked at the word she was pointing to...I didn't see...

-2 for spelling, every time. She stopped at about the 12th one. I think she took pity and gave me a B.

Under stress or tiredness, I may speak backwards " That dog brown..."

Numbers are a visual nightmare. My math skills absolutely suck.

Having said all this? I definitely think differently,and my pattern recognition is incredible. Both lead me to perspectives others miss. It's been a gift,despite the learning curve.

Thank you,again. I too appreciate you - for all you are.

As am I of your computational abilities. Having an abysmal time with Algebra 2 put the nail in the coffin of becoming a Dr.

We do with what we have,and YOU do for the world at large ,in phenomenal fashion.

Huzzah!!!
