A little bit more about the injury-related..

Using my left hand to lift my right hand and place it just in front of the keyboard, I type with both hands…

I got a new image : A crew-cut man with a blue arm sling.

So they like to ask : What happen?

I like to answer (especially to the *little-pals) : I fought. But don’t you worry. I won. The other guy injured until more jialut. I tell you, his whole body wrapped up.

I was joking with them, of course.
It is funny to see how their eyes opened widely in disbelief before bursting in laughters. ;o)
When I’m already in this situation, I choose not to gloom over it. Haha..

I commented to the Chinese physician : I think the situation is getting worse. Look at the big dark blue-black patches around the injury region.

The Chinese physician replied : This is very good. 这表示里面的淤血扩散出来。这是好现象。

I can’t deny that despite the new appearing horrible dark blue-black patches, I feel better. So blue-black is not necessarily a bad thing. ;o)

They still question : You still drive?

I replied in a cheeky manner : Erm.. Yes, of course. why not?

I know they asked/questioned out of good will. They can’t imagine driving with only one hand, and with the non-master hand some more.
I also asked myself : Am I endangering others?
If only with my left hand,
- I have to conquer at least 4 levels of multi-storey car park a few times..
- I can do right-,left-,u-turns almost subconsciously..
- I realised I can also do 3-point turn effortlessly..
I think I am managing well enough.
Ha.. So F and H are more relief that I’m indeed managing well enough when I drove them out for lunch the other day. :o)
I have to admit, quite a different set of skills are involved during steering with only my left hand. I didn’t know I got them, until I need them.
Okay, I will be more careful still.


Right hand is already tired, let it rest. I shall continue to type using my left hand…


The funniest words of advice would be : Nanzi, you must understand something. Certain things are not suitable for certain people. Leave the more active sports for the younger ones. We should be participating in milder activities. We cannot go against nature. Now, you see lah.

This piece of advice is from an aunty-level colleague mah.
She is also rather comical lor.

The *little-pals asked : Huh… Cham lah. You right-handed right? So are you still our tutor?

Yes, the right hand needs rest, and only rest.
Writing on paper is still possible, if I were to use my left hand to lift my right hand and place it near where anything needs to be written.
Writing on white board is impossible.
Then how?
I wrote in left hand instead.
They never complain about the kindergarten-level-like hand-writing. Haha..
I think it’s still pretty legible hor. I may have to work on the neatness and a bit more on the speed though.
In conclusion : I am still their tutor.

After 1 week, the weird sensation is still there (of course), and the power of my right hand has only regained by a teeny-weeny fraction. Oh well.. Some cases took months to recuperate.

Day by day, I am getting used to it, getting used to using my left hand for anything and everything. Ha.. Really looking forward to the days where both my left and right hands can combine-force again. :o)
