Evidence:

At first it was thought that Jeremy was deaf - but tests showed that his hearing was perfect. When the condition [dyslexia] was finally diagnosed his mother read to him at home alone in his bedroom and he began to pick up, even though he would still struggle to write words such as 'necessary', labouring over where the Es and Ss should go.
