Sorry to hear about your hand, i lost my  index, ring finger and 30% use of my middle finger on my right hand [ i`m right handed ] in a job injury back in 2005. When i got home from the hospital i thought no way will i be able to create like i use too. Plus the band i was in we just came out with our first cd. Well 6 years later i`ve overcome that injury and learned to keep creating and playing, maybe not as well as before but still doing it. Like i`ve always said....if there`s a will there`s a way !! One idea that i have for you...make up a glove for your injured hand with velcro on it, then attach velco to your tools that you use. Might be one way to help. They do simalar gloves like that out in the V. A hospital for guys with hand injury`s.
