Sometimes it moves involuntarily; sometimes when I get startled or sometimes the tendons ripple on my hand and wrist, so at least I know its not entirely dead, but I’ve had no ability to move it at will; until YESTERDAY!! after an intense body work session; I ‘m laying face down and I feel like I am wiggling the fingers a little bit; I can feel with certainty the thumb  and index finger but I’m not sure of the others; so I ask my masseuse”Am I wiggling my fingers?” He say “yes”…. “ALL of them?”…. “yes” 1st time in nearly 6 years!!! I am so filled with joy and hope; ALL day today I am near tears… WHAT a journey! The thought that I just might? Have a functioning  left hand again, in this life, is A- mazing!!!
