Abstract

All parents are primarily interested in helping their reading- or learning-disabled and ADHD children, especially those who are also anxiety ridden—and as quickly as possible. That’s their bottom line. With that in mind, let’s get back to looking at some real, successfully treated cases, as these patients provide the greatest understanding and hope to all other suffering dyslexics and their parents.

Notes

  1. 1.

    To be crystal clear: The reflex writing involving script, print, and drawing appear to have differing determining and overdetermining mechanisms and circuits among dyslexics, explaining why these functions are separately impaired and respond differently to the CVS enhancers. And the same complex and dynamic considerations hold for many of the other symptoms and characteristics found among dyslexics. Thus, for example, it is quite common that dyslexics have difficulty with algebra and yet are gifted in geometry, and vice versa, and even good with the multiplication tables, except for 7 × 6 or recalling the 6s. And I even have a gifted mathematician who can’t perform simple addition, subtraction, and multiplication without a calculator. So, one must assume the presence of distinct circuits for each of these many functions and sub-functions.
