welcome to my new world

After struggled all through my school years and two years of college with my reading and writing. Because no one believe my parents when they said there was something else than dyslexia . So I got referred to Remploy which change my life  Because I had lots of different tested and The person said I would like to referred you for a Irlen screening . So on febrauary 8  I went for my Irlen screening  where I got a big suprize . Before I couldn't read without distortion  . I got to pick a colour  I pick Aqua blue overlay and was asked to read again  I got not believe it I got read property for the first time in my life . So finally been diagnosis with having both dyslexia and irlen syndrome was a bit scared and excited So This why I decide to share my story with other people so they know about Irlen syndrome also has scotopic sentivity syndrome or meare's Irlen syndrome .

But I still having to fight to get funding or a grant for £500 For My Irlen filters and tested So If anyone know where to go to get funding or a grant please contant me or leave a commet with where to go.

  1. Hi Jennifer, I hope you can get your Irlen filters. In the meantime, try taking a piece of aqua-blue tranparent paper (like cellophane) with you everywhere and put it over the white pages. It won't be as good as the filters but it will help a bit.
