That's worth more than two cents - thank you! My dyslexia wasn't discovered until my thirties. My father had taught me to read at a very early age, and since he is also dyslexic, I learned his coping skills. When I'm tired or stupid with a migraine, I have the same problem, although it's worse when I'm writing than when I'm speaking.
My father had several strokes a couple years ago, and his abilty to grab the right word has suffered. Seeing how frustrated he gets when people try to finish his sentences, I can better understand how Ray feels when he can't find the word and knows - just knows - that someone thinks it is helpful to find it for him.
