When I was in first grade I broke my right arm (in NINE places!) and had to wear a series of casts for the better part of a year. Over that time, I learned to write/eat/bat/etc. left-handed and continued to do so exclusively until my right arm was fully healed. I was ambidextrous for most of gradeschool, but gradually lost just about all of the left-handed skill & coordination.

I still prefer to drive with just my left hand on the steering wheel, however!
