"One-Handed in a Two-Handed World"
I purchased Tommye-Karen Mayer's book "One-Handed in a Two-Handed World, 3rd Edition" and am very happy with all I've learned. She gives practical advice for dressing, grooming, cooking, sporting, working, and many other activities, mostly without the use of gadgets. She strongly believes in her Three Secrets: Body Positioning, 4 Fingers & a Thumb, and as a last resort, Gadgets. This book can be purchased in several editions from seversl places. A few places you can purchase her book are http://www.princegallison.com/onehand.html and http://www.amazon.com/One-Handed-Two-Handed-World-Tommye-Mayer/dp/0965280535.

Welcome to The Single Handed Life. A few rules:
(1) Be kind. Do no harm. This includes being critical of people, products, manufacturers and anything else that someone else may be getting benefit from.
(2) You can be anonymous, but just remember rule number (1).
(3) If you know good websites, please link them to your blog comments.
(4) If you know any good products, please tell us why they help and how to purchase them.
(5) If you know any good techniques, please tell us what your disability is, why this technique works for you, and outline the technique step by step.
Thank you for your input!
