<p>[QUOTE="lvetterli, post: 784292, member: 130"]May I chime in on the "leftie" discussion? My mother was naturally a leftie but forced to use her right hand as a small child. She had juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (which, of course was not diagnosed until many years later, after they had pulled most of her teeth in the belief that infection there was causing terrible joint pain and swelling) which affected her hands and wrists, primarily on the right. She, naturally, reverted to using her left as the right wrist eventually fused. By the time she had me, she did little with her right hand except write, and she had lovely legible script handwriting. I find it incredible sometimes how adaptable we humans are, if we only will give things a try. </p><p>Linda[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
