I’ve had to relearn how to write after my shoulder injury. My fingers were very stiff and my grip was weak. I’ve been able to make progress largely due to a foam ring which hugs my pen; an adaptive device. I started to think about many devices that helped me adapt to physical limitations or environmental conditions. I use a pillow to be comfortable for meditation. I remember, as a seven year-old, having training wheels on my two-wheeler until I felt confident enough to ride without them. What are some adaptive devices you’ve used in your life? How have they changed your experience for the better?
