I was born being left hand dominate but as a child was broken of it and made to use my right hand to write. I'm ambidextrous as an adult but my right hand is stronger than my left because of the things I still do right handed today. Isn't it great to know were the ones that are in our right minds in all these times of craziness...LOL

My machine has a knee lift pressure foot so they try to retrain their customer's to drive their machine with our left foot. It's awkward at first but it can be done and I am one who is extremely uncoordinated.

I learned to trade off when I had my right knee replaced with out too much trouble. Now am able to use either when the RA gets bad. Good luck with your replacement. Where theres a will thewres a way!!
