My handwriting was starting to become illegible, even to me. My hand/fingers would start to seize before I could even finish the sentence.
I can no longer write with my right hand. My wrist tremors when I grip a pen and when I try to write my fingers physically lose control of the pen. Video link – can you read that?!?
I continue to lose fine motor skills. Things like buttoning my clothes or clipping my nails are a challenge.
I practice penmanship with my left hand most mornings. I can only go for so long before my hand gets tired. I worry that this repetitive motion will trigger the same neurological issues in my left hand. I try not to overwork it. Kurt fills out the majority of my paperwork for doctors appointments and what not.
My doctor said I would need to practice for one hour a day for six months to write like I did with my right hand. At the rate I’m going, it will probably take six years, heehee!
