Mitten stroke rehab

A friend noticed I complained about mittens so he handed me a couple of moosehide mittens and told me to try them on. The mostly balled up left fist made it thru the wrist so he gave them to me. Thanks Bret.  The only problem is that after I get it on I spend the next 5 minutes pulling out my thumb from my palm and getting it into the thumb finger spot. But they are quite warm and it stays on my hand as compared to some of my other mittens that slide off after 10-15 minutes.

  1. Dean,
    I can relate to this! My problem is getting mittens on my left unaffected hand.

  2. My hemiplegic hand curls up instantly when it is freezing outside. I'm glad you found a solution.
