Remember that time you broke both your arms? How did you wipe your butt? (Or, more generally, what was the hardest thing to deal with while recovering?)

To the first question, I used my left hand.

To the second, eating was the hardest.

Here’s the thing. My right arm had close fractures on both the radius and the ulna, right next to my wrist. My left arm had hairlines on both of those bones. So I had a plaster cast on one arm, and a brace on the other.

For 6 weeks, my left hand was my dominant. And it wasn’t a good one.
