In Episode 123 of Let’s Talk Learning Disabilities, Laurie reconnects with Melanie Florsheim to revisit the foundational concepts of dyslexia, emphasizing that it is a neurological disorder affecting the brain’s ability to process written language—not a result of brain damage or reversed letters. Melanie explains that dyslexia primarily impacts reading, spelling, and writing due to difficulties in processing the symbols (letters) and their associated sounds.
