Blogging about overcoming reading problems due to brain damage

I've mentioned my reading problems here a lot, and how pleased I have been to overcome them.

I've just written a lengthy blog about this on the Vasculitis UK discussion board, prompted by a question that came through Twitter today to me about overcoming reading problems caused by brain damage.

I fell ill in 1994, initially misdiagnosed with ME, but rediagnosed in late 1997 with cerebral vasculitis, a progressive incurable neurological disease that causes lots of strokes, causing cumulative and irreversible brain damage and subsequent disabilities.
