Thanks for all the suggestions, they are under consideration. Allan, a pulley system attached to the ceiling would work if this were a simple problem of just keeping my arm up. But, because of nerve irritation, my arm and shoulder jerks and I end up putting lips on eyeballs!

Holly, I'm left handed and the side that is hurt (of course) is the left. I'm already using my right hand and trying to teach my brain the fine motor control needed. Since I already am somewhat ambidextrous I may be able to pull this off. I believe that the knowledge and skill is all in the brain anyway, this should be possible. I don't know about my feet though, that would take some doing! So, if I post a really messed up portrait be kind, I probably used my right hand, or my teeth.

Kim, hubby is doing an admirable job. Does all lifting, reaching, driving, helps with meals, massages almond oil in my back every night, and still loves me. And, animals aren't the problem, my stupid body is the problem. I could have done this hugging my husband instead of Zoe (my GSD).

Thank you everyone, it hurts to type, but I've really missed you all.

Jean
