She does have a disability, called dyslexia. A spell check would NOT help, because she sees letters and numbers backwards. Even reading is difficult when you have dyslexia, so a spell check does nothing for you.
While I think it's great that you are trying to look out for a friend, spell check does help. I have dyslexia as well, and I don't use that as an excuse to be lazy. I also have several friends who are dyslexic and we still take the time to make sure things are spelled correctly. Now if I actually have to handwrite something that's a whole different story, I have such a hard time with manuscript. But with typing spell check does work even if you are dyslexic, if you spell the word wrong then it gives you the correct spelling it's not that difficult.
