One step forward, one step back.

I'm really not sure how to say this. I'm losing the ability of my right hand and this week it is been made abundantly clear that some of my function is gone. When I wake up both my left-hand and right-hand are balled up and difficult to un-curl. I can still do a little bit if I stretch my right hand and keep my fingers flat on the surface. It is getting more difficult to operate my PC manually. Even with the voice software I still have to move the mouse a number of times to post or operated all. Many times it gets confused and won't work with the voice at all so I have to reboot. Logging in is not easy. When I dictate I still have to move the mouse manually To move the text into the blog. That being said I have some successes to report.
I have finally figured out how to stop the mouse after I tell it to move. For a year now I knew how to move the mouse by boys but could not get it to stop. I tried saying mouse cancel, cancel mouse, stop mouse and mouse stop. None of these work. In my frustration a few weeks ago I just yelled stop at it and it stopped the mouse. I have to include the word mouse when I want to move it but I can't include it when I wanted to stop. It really helps on many things now especially Facebook.
My hope is to get something of my history posted by months end. After that I'm not sure how much I'll be able to post. I hope to keep it going but am not sure what the future holds.
