Oh hello! I'm here. Welcome over Randall.
My son was diagnosed with executive
function deficits. It is a big part of ADHD, but I do not know if this is a part of the "exia" etc., group of LD's. They consist of the
abilities to plan tasks (think of all the tasks necessary to get an
assignment turned in once it is assigned.....all those things), memory
recall, etc. I love Chris Dendy's site on EFD:

I hope that links okay. I reeeeaaaalllly had my doubts that Dore would address that, we went months with "seeing no change," so to speak. The week of his last assessment where he received his final sets of wind-downs, the EFDs started really kicking in, like almost overnight. I love to tell the story of him taking out the garbage that week and remembering all the steps to complete the horrid chore, with me only looking on in total disbelief. He's done it three times now! And I've taken it out since and forgotten to grab the liners on the way back in the house................... But that is just an example of the EFD's and the transference in his daily living. THANK YOU DORE! Lovely.
