My friends, I've been quite overwhelmed by the good wishes from members of this forum since the problem and I thank you all. However, although I've started recontributing on a limited scale, I'm still not 100% better. I've recovered hand movement from 0% of normal to 95%, although it is slow and has to be willed. Strength in it is about 60% of normal and agility 40%. It is still improving, by small quantum leaps, and I hope this will continue :-) Morale is good. No answer required or solicited, please.
