My dad was a lefty because he was a breach baby and the forceps they used during his birth damaged his right hand. He could not form a fist. That resulted in him not being able to hold a pen, and he never drove a car. He couldn’t even give a firm handshake. But he did play high school football and was a left handed shot putter. One of my most endearing memories of him is the time when a local paper ran the team photo on an anniversary of his high school winning the state championship. He asked me to cut it out for him because he didn’t have a pair of left handed scissors in his office.
