[quote=Anonymous]Dyslexia takes a long time to get to "normalcy" in that it depends how far back your kid is and how much it takes to catch up.  That being said, once you start the path to formal tutoring on a program that is proven effective, you will see changes.  It does get better.  DS was diagnosed summer before 5th grade and now approaching 9th, he is grade level reading.  He was not so much behind however and never struggled until about end of 4th grade.  It will never be "normal" for him but with the assistance of audio and continued efforts of tutoring to help in school to keep up, I have every confidence he'll be alright.  He has ADHD as well which also adds to issues but I never realized HOW MANY successful people had either or combo of ADHD + dyslexia.  Let me tell you, there are so many ways to success even with dyslexia.  2 of my best friends told me after I shared my son's diagnosis that they have and 1 was a Cathlab nurse and the other a VP of HR.  Neither had help growing up.  So there you go :) [/quote]
