Using prostheses is a learning experience, and while many of us hate to read directions, we can all benefit from the experience of others.
Sean McHugh has posted a series of instructional videos on his
You Tube site explaining how his prosthesis
works, and how to perform a variety of tasks.
About half of those without arms choose not to use prostheses at all. Getting along without requires as many or more tricks than successfully using a prosthesis.
Tommye-K. Mayer has written a book,
One-handed in a Two-Handed World, that explains a lot of those tips and tricks.
