Ouch! I didn't even know they could do elbow replacements. Hope it all heels good as new.

Never heard of elbow replacement. Glad they are available, sorry you had to get one. Now you can read, surf and learn all kinds of stuff and not feel guilty while you are doing it.

Hope you have improvement every day!

I'm sorry about your accident. While reading the board, keep a log of all the wonderful things you are going to want to make. I also get inspiration from seeing what other people do.

So sorry for your pain and agony. I know how frustrating it can be to be disabled temporarily. Try to be content just stroke your beautiful fabric. :-)

Been there, done that.... only mine was repaired, with 3 metal plates and 23 screws and pins, and trust me it will get better! I am so right handed I couldn't even use a spoon respectably with my left hand, but before long I was stitching already cut pieces with it.... never did do that well feeding myself, but I got pretty good at piecing! My thoughts are with you!

Bless your heart! I hope you have a speedy recovery.

Bless your heart! I am so sorry you are hurt. It is really awful learning to use use just one hand.... Hope it wasn't your dominate hand/arm you are doing without. I broke my right arm/wrist and was out of commission for a couple of months.... no quilting (boo hoo) and the simplest things were really a chore. (personal hygiene was one of them) I sincerely hope your recovery is fast, easy and rehab is gentle.My thoughts are with you. This board is great therapy.
