I have loved ones with dyslexia and I am not insensitive to that.
You apparently have a much less severe case than those I am familiar with.
I am very fortunate because I have quite a good memory.
I had to memorize every word I learned to spell because I cannot sound them out.
I often double words when I write or I leave words out.
Even if I proofread before I hit send I often miss the doubled words or omitted words because my mind sees what I wanted to write not what I actually wrote.
I hope your loved ones don't get too discouraged by their dyslexia.
Please remind them that sometimes dyslexia can be thought of as a gift because a lot of people with dyslexia have talents in things other than reading, writing, and spelling.
