I too am in this same situation. I am a very intelligence person however
when it comes to spelling and grammar, I come apart at the seams. For
example, I will exchange words like: choice for chose or through for
thought. Funny thing is, I will read and reread what I have written many
times only seeing the errors some days later or when someone points them
out to me. Very frustrating to say the least.
