Do I have the answer for you!!! I'm with you I have a problem with thimbles so here goes. If you know anyone that is nurse or if you go to the hospital or Doc office or you may just go in there and buy one but... you know the rubber bands they put on your arm to take blood. Well ask if you can keep it because they throw them away. Cut it the length that will go over your finger and rap a Band-Aid around it to keep it in place. I love it I can still feel it stays on and protects my finger.
