You’re absolutely right, @Bobbo is using a very outdated definition of dyslexia that was probably the dominant uncontested definition at the time of diagnosis. It’s widely accepted to be about more than just reading and writing these days and extends to a wide range of attributes associated with short term memory and information processing. There’s a really good summary here: https://assets.cambridge.org/97813165/17000/excerpt/9781316517000_excerpt.pdf
I’d suggest skipping to page 7 before reading from the start, then clicking the link at the top of the page and buying the whole book. If you could stretch to getting the hardback version that would really help with the wife’s finances.
