DOWNLOAD EBOOKRobert Chilcoate was born in Laurel, Maryland, on May 21, 1962. He was born premature, and the doctor told his mother that he would not be able to walk or talk and that he would be deaf and blind. When he was in school, the school board thought that he was retarded. Robert overcame all of this and was diagnosed with dyslexia. He went to school depressed and could not sleep at night because he always worried about tests and did not know if he was smart enough to pass them. He thought that he was a complete failure. This is his life story of growing up with dyslexia. He is now learning more now than ever through a tutor that has been assigned by his employer. Robert wanted to bring his story forward so that people know how serious dyslexia is and that there is help for this disorder. Older people can obtain help through the state or county, and younger people through the school system.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWords spelled right, but out of context don't make a story, they make a dictionary. Words assembled with sense, smarts and Imagination, but spelled wrong, still make a story. I'm Nicole Kiefer, I'm the author of two publishing house bestsellers in Germany and Waiting in the Wings here in North America, and I'm dyslexic. I was born with Nail-Patella-Syndrome, I'm dyslexic and I have Fibromyalgia, and this is my story. When I was born my parents called me their miracle child, because medicine thought my mother wouldn't be able to conceive. When I begun school my peers called me stupid, loser and worthless and for some time I believed them. My grades prove in my eyes that they were right. I was told I would never amount to anything, that with my spelling and grammar I would never get a job that had to do with writing, and never get far in life. I proved them all wrong when a publisher asked me if I would be willing to publish my work with him. This book is the story of my life, and part of my life is being dyslexic, which is one of the reasons this book, is and never will be professionally edited. This book is a representation of dyslexic writing, a demonstration that the story matters more then the spelling. So for this book, forget spelling, forget grammar and forget punctuation, leave all those rules behind and read the story. You might be surprised at what you find.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIt is really strange to live with the unknown and still know that there is something not right with you. I knew that I was intelligent and came from two families that had no slouches in the brain areas of life. I have strong genes from many generations of doctors, lawyers, inventors, teachers, plumbers, writers, farmers, adventurers, and women who were strong great leaders, and I wondered why I was not living up to the genes that must also be flowing through my veins. It always felt like my life was one step forward and two steps back. I do all right in the arts, but you cannot make it in this life without math and reading. I rarely got a grade higher than an S for satisfactory or a C+. Even with a higher education and the level of a senior administrator before quitting the business world, the feeling that I should be doing better never left my mind and ego until the day many years later that I learned the answer.
