Hi Shawn,


RH> Not fun--arthritis? Back in 1992 I broke (shattered the left) radius

SH> That plus carpal tunnel or RSI something like that.  As a guitar
SH> player and wood carver and computer nerd my hands have taken a beating
SH> over the years.  I can't play guitar or carve much anymore, but I
SH> still think I am normal. :)

I gave up the guitar after college--had other things on my plate at the
time. It was always a stretch for some of the chords anyway, as my hands
are small.


RH> still use them but not as good as they once were. If I'm doing
RH> something that needs constant stirring, I'll switch off hands from
RH> time to time until it is done. Other little things here & there help
RH> also.

SH> Yes that sounds painful for sure.  I just plug along and hope for the
SH> best.

Same here. If I'm going to be doing something that uses the left wrist a
lot (hand sewing in particular) I'll put on a soft brace. Mixed up a
quadruple batch of cornbread (2 13x9 pans) this morning for Steve to
take over for the American Legion group supper tomorrow night. So far no
problem but I may slip on the brace before sitting down at the sewing
machine in a bit.
