Here's a clearer picture, but it's not as pretty. My neurologist did a mean nerve conduction test on me today, with needles and electricity. A nerve in my little finger was not at home, nothing. According to the doctor I have neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome, he wrote it down for me. Doesn't that sound just great? He also explained what it is, but it didn't make much sense to me. Long live the internet: "True neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome is caused by a compression of the nerves in the brachial plexus." So I look up brachial plexus, and find the images above. And the moment I want to take a closer look at the pictures I understand why I have this problem in my left arm, while being right handed: I move my head towards the screen and lean on my left ellbow, squeezing my brachial plexus! I must do this dozens of times a day, and I will stop doing this immediately, as of now, heute nog verdomme.

I really loved the drawing of you and your daughter.
