Re: Newly Injured

hey nan. sorry about your injury. i got hurt almost 6 years ago, my left arm is completely paralyzed. i use a special key board layout called "right hand dvorak." it's supported by windows under language support. (there's also "left hand dvorak") you don't need to buy a keyboard....

Re: Tips on getting around with one arm.

somebody bought me a black & decker jar opener. it's big & clunky but it works great. it will even open jars that my friends can't get open. don't use it too often, but when i need it, nothing else will do

Re: Help

i was injured in June 2005, my left arm is completely paralyzed. I had the nerve graft surgery in September 2005. It took about 6 to 8 months, but I finally did get some movement back in the biceps. To be honest, it's not particularly useful movement, but it does help control the edema.
