Tom Cruise has a history of Dyslexia which is what I have in common
with him,and so I did this post on him.

Tom Cruise:
"When I was seven, I was labeled dyslexic. I'd try to concentrate on
what I was reading,and then I'd get to the end of the page and have
very little memory of anything I read. I would go blank,feel
anxious,nervous,bored,frustrated,dumb.
I don't want people to go through what I went through. I want kids to
have the ability to read,to write,to understand what people are saying
to them,to be able solve life's problems."

That's what it's been like for me. Auditory therapy,speech therapy,and
phonics helped me develop the phonemic and phonological awareness to
speak, decode,write and spell words well,but they did not help me to
remember them well when it comes to reading and listening because I
have impaired immediate visual memory,borderline impaired verbal
memory,and borderline impaired sentence repetition according to
Veteran Affairs neurological testing.
