Greeting to all those who peruse this list.
I have been referred a gentleman who is a week old left below elbow amputee. We are interested in a primer of sorts that may enlighten us to the world of how the one-handed accomplish simple tasks. The initial question that sparked this communication was how do I trim my fingernails with one hand? I could answer all of his other questions save this one. I know that this man will learn to adapt and accommodate with time and experience but an intro manual is what we seek right now.
If anyone has knowledge of any style of beginners book, an introduction to life with one hand please forward this info to me.
Thank you for you time.
