                        my son is now 22 and some of the things you describe sound like him then.  I woudl read Mel Levine's A Mind at a Time.    and the bio  Over my Head  by Claudia Osborn    this needs to be treated not as LD with behavior Mod  for it is more coplex than that.  If there is problem with memory  Behavior modification just doesnt work.    Sensory motor integration is a useful therapy.. Read Jean Ayres book on that.
