Long sleeve shirts

 When I wear these the right arm is never buttoned, so it drags in food as I reach across the table. While I could button most shirts before putting them on, almost all are too tight to get off especially with a useless left hand.

The obvious solution; Western snap button shirts. found them while in New Mexico.

The three snaps on the right arm need to be snapped prior to putting the shirt on. Then when removing the shirt use your teeth to unsnap the right arm, contrary to what my ex used to tell me(Not to use my teeth to assist in tasks. I ignored her even though she was a PT.)

My occupational therapist should have told me of this solution. 












A friend dared me to buy this in Taos, NM. I complied, I get approving comments from women on this.

  1. My first OT told me to, "Forget what your grandmother taught you to the contrary. Teeth are tools, not jewels." I have bonding on my front upper incisors, so I've learned to use my molars when I need to use my teeth.
