Welcome to Chiara’s one handed life
My name is Chiara, I have acquired right hand side hemiplegia. In easy to understand language this means I have muscle weakness and paralysis on my right side. This is a result of a stroke I suffered at three years old due to the Chicken pox virus. I was initially unable to move but after 10 days walked out the hospital.
However, I never regained the use of my right arm and hand. This channel is about How I manage life one handed.

Thanks for the tips, just had shoulder surgery and am finding it really difficult to manage my hair
Did you ever have to wear a resting hand splint?
1 in every 1,000 that's alarming
Nope they don’t support Me nope they don’t even give a fuck and yeah CLEALRY fully racist damn country uk
What a great video I guess facing racism is simply wrong when in uk And yet I’m still not even in hold of a fuckin provisional
Chiara..where'd you go?
On 10.16.2021 I had a hemorrhagic stroke that resulted in left sided hemiplegia robbing me of 35 years of guitar playing among many other things . It's been hard .
I'm almost 3 years into this hemiplegia and I'm still new at this . Do you ever suffer from pain from your hemiplegia,?
I’m so glad I found you! I had a stroke when I was 21 and my left arm and hand are paralyzed. I’ve been wanting a beach waver so bad but knew I most likely wouldn’t be able to do it and make it actually look good..I have hope that I can get beautiful curls because of you! Thank you so much for this video! 😍
❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤
So motivating! Thank you 🙏🏻
Looking at this for my mum as she had a stroke but its not long enough to put it under ne neck
❤❤❤
Well done and you got beautiful hair
Great idea with the shoulder usage. I've bought one hand accessories to help, but they don't work well. I'm definitely going to try this trick. I also have hemiplegia from a haemorrhagic stroke 11 years ago at 25.
Thank you. This is so helpful for my family member who has CP. Please post more videos like this.
thank you. i walk exactly like you❤
Honestly I appreciate this because a nurse damaged a nerve in my dominate hand so I'm unable to use it currently so this was very helpful
Thank you so much beautiful ❤❤❤this will help

Hi good morning I too had a stroke and I now have a weakness on my left side of my body but I want to learn all things using my right hand
Who do you zip up the zipper on jeans? I haven’t worn any in 10 years. I wear stretchy jeans! Could you show us the way you do it please? Thank you!!😊
Yes, I can show you how I do zips on jeans. I will do a video soon.
@@ChiarasOneHandedLife thank you so much. Look forward to it!!
I just wanted to say the companion video to this one on instagram is incredible. The end look is absolute fire 🔥 😍💣
Thank you 😊
Foam rollers...wow. I didn't know those were still being used. They make great curls. You go girl!!
Thank you I didn’t know they was still being used either until I tried them and they’re really good
Love it! Thank you so much!
Thank you for sharing your video i also have a disabled leg i live with it also thank you .
I'm from Pakistan and watch your videos and reels also on Instagram. Really appreciate you ❣️ You are so special 🥰
hi didnt you have botox injection in your hand too try to relax it a little to allow you to use it? just wondering how that worked. thanks and have a good day from the USA
Hi thank you for your comment. Yes I do have Botox injections in my arm. I’ve been having since I was about 11 years old and they are to relax the muscles but they are not to regain movement. this is just to relax the muscles and to make my arm in a more comfortable position for me as my muscles are very tight in my arm. Hope you have a great day 😀
@@ChiarasOneHandedLife thank you so much for answering. are you close to having an injection?? it would be interesting to see what movement or control of your affected arm and hand before the injection and the after affect on hoe it relaxes the arm hand and fingers. thanks again 🙂
I have a similar situation with a left sided weakness. I would to see how you shave/put deodorant on Any tips for these situations I really appreciate your videos and have learned a lot from you and your videos
Hi there my name is Tom i live in London Ontario Canada
Chiara, is there a time of year that is worse for your condition? Thanks for educating me and others. 👍
Bags are my best friend when going upstairs to my room!
I always carry a trolley or a bag when I go shopping 😊
Genius! Thank you doing the Bobby pin.♥️♥️♥️♥️
Great job!👏 Thank you for the advice! I broke my arm, and your performance of making a bun using one hand is so useful!
I had a stroke. I am 42 yr old.
This is just what I need! I've been struggling my whole life unable to use my left arm and got depressed when I had to rely on people to do these tasks for me, such a massive help thankyou
