Stacy loves to make jokes about his hand and those were only a couple...theres the shark/gator/bear hunting story, the kids love the nose picking visuals, the sign language one is fun, in person he actually mumbles a bit when giving the punch line...if one doesn't laugh, the alternative is to fall in a puddle of mush and die and who wants that?!?! I love that he made it his goal to over achieve since then and am proud to tell his story, our story. Thanks so much! <br />OH< hand surgeries have come miles since then, but his fingers were not re attatchable...Grah-Toe Studio,Inchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16821907861989196328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7708588949625489158.post-39807189815764251602010-11-23T00:34:14.128-07:002010-11-23T00:34:14.128-07:00I enjoy interesting behind the scenes stories. I a...I enjoy interesting behind the scenes stories. I am well aware of the shortage of hand surgeons. For some time a member of my extended family lived with a world renowned hand surgeon. As a teenager I was fascinated, as an adult I was in awe. The practice that he and another doctor started is now doing successful hand transplants. I shall forever be fascinated with the advances in medicine just since I've been alive. My favorite joke about Stacy is the sign language and mumbling. That's one I will share with my husband. He will certainly appreciate the irreverant humor.<br />I saw a Chinese boy who could play the piano beautifully with only his toes. He had no arms. I wonder if you can do sign language with your toes. There's really not much interesting to share about me but you have inspired me to create some fantastic, imaginary life path that lead me to be known as the "The Clay Lady" and my husband to be known as "Mr. Lisa".lisa khttp://www.poppylovesaparty.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7708588949625489158.post-17572733471933814812010-11-22T15:40:47.646-07:002010-11-22T15:40:47.646-07:00He did have trouble learning to tie shoes again, b...He did have trouble learning to tie shoes again, but slip on shoes are so much more comfy anyway ;D <br />He doesn't feel these things are hard for him, a challenge is fun and we love to create SO much, that it really isn't an issue wethere he can or can't, HE CAN!Grah-Toe Studio,Inchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16821907861989196328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7708588949625489158.post-18341394575126167932010-11-22T15:26:56.440-07:002010-11-22T15:26:56.440-07:00Thanks so much for sharing your story.

His work is amazing, but he has all his fingers, so I can only imagine how hard it must be for Stacy. Good for him that he has been able to continue his love for the craft despite difficulty. Keep up the good work, everything you make is gorgeous!!Lillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10934660900428793540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7708588949625489158.post-14567465984220996922010-11-22T15:23:41.917-07:002010-11-22T15:23:41.917-07:00What a story!

What a testimony to his gift!<br /><br />Was it hard for Stacy to learn to do things once he had lost his fingers? I know I have a hard time zipping my pants with both hands.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02942425401090460387noreply@blogger.com
