hard in math

[slate]

actualy, it is my first language, and i know my spelling is horrific, but it is not the result of lazyness. you should have seen it a year ago, or two. i have both dislexia, dysgraphia, and other non verbal learning dissorders... please, bare with me :P

Please accept my apology, I did not mean to be insensitive, I never considered the possibility that you had a medical condition.
