Thanks Simon I can lift my left arm under great strain to my chin using the little further every day so understand you approach. The hand movement is more of a challenge with the claw up a certainly is linked to my left leg The biggest challenge yesterday was enough stamina to work around the car several times, had to move my chair with me and take tests to get it done I wil get some beading pictures when possible thanks for the support, I will get there just not as quickly as I’d like.

You have gained so much mobility with your right arm, Simon. Yes, it has taken you 3 years, but I can imagine it was uphill the whole time. The complications I am going through with my leg are off the chart, and a leg is so much less complicated than an arm. In comparison the scapula is an amazingly delicate mechanism.
Good job, mrfrederickson. Satisfying.
ciao, Roland

I’m not too hopeful of the arm returning to any function soon as 3.5 years has yielded nothing major movement wise but I can make the thumb move and fingers fractionally
This means something is connecting just very slowly I’m afraid.

If I could wax the car I’d be delighted. Hence you’re doing just fine.
And slow progress is better than no progress.
And forgive me for asking, but
Is your arm/shoulder in pain? or should I ask has it been in pain?
keep up the good looking car,
ciao, Roland

No pain sounds great for your L arm,
My right leg is okay for one day, and not (all locked) the next…
a pattern that has persisted for 6 months…
ciao, R

Well I’m glad one of those things isn’t true!!!
I will have a can of cider with my supper to join you in relaxing and also celebrating the success of the wax!!
Good job sir 
which sort did you use?!?
Is Jack allowed a sip? and what beer of choice?!? I find beer weird now - used to love a bitter or some others - I can still have a guiness but mostly a couple of ciders are good for me
