I am about to go to bed and wanted to share my 1st day of life with sling! the morning was awful, i couldn't open the jars of cereal so i went out for coffee and brioche. (can't eat bagels yet, it took a while getting used to dressing with one hand.
Undressing is easy (like you didn't know that ;-)) remove from the right side that is not hurt over the head and slide it down the left side (the side that is hurt).
drssing is trickey. Long sleeves t-shirts are better than other clothes, loose clothese erasier to slide in and out than othes! jeans with zip fly are easier than buttons.
after the afternoon nap i decided to take shower and shave. showering was easy, but drying off can be tough. buy basic towels and not the thick egyptian cotton towels. using shampoo was tough, i used the right hand to put shamppo on head and used the left hand to lather.
Shaving was even more fun. I use the edge shaving gel. I had to squeeze it on the sink and pick up with right hand apply it to my face. Using the razor was easy. I would recommend buying electric razor/shaver. brushing teeth with eletric toothbrush is easy.
I am about to go to bed, I am amazed how quickly my body is adapting to just using right hand. It reminds me of simpson episode where homer get one dumbell and uses it for just the right hand.
Anyway have a good night!

Bummer Subhash!! But judging from your smile in the photo it doesn't look too serious. And it sounds like you're having too much fun experimenting with using only one hand for everything! Sorry to hear about your accident.
