Thanks for the tip, Kristine! I am familiar with Cabela’s and battery heated gloves, but never tried them. I will take a look. So glad you enjoy the blog. Happy Thanksgiving!

I love reading your posts. Thank you for putting into words what I wish I could say. I have Scleroderma too. I’ve had it for 29 years. It’s really nice hearing another person speak out about what we all go through. I’m sorry to hear that you are battling with ulcers right now. Winter! Urrrggg. I get those horrible pesky ulcers on my fingers too. I know how long lived and painful they are. I wanted to pass along that I found battery heated gloves from the outdoor store, Cabela’s. The gloves really help a great deal in the winter with my Raynaud’s fingers. The heating wires go down every finger so the whole hand is kept warm. The only drawback is that they are as ugly as sin. Cabela’s is a hunting store. Yes…the gloves I love are camouflage. Who the heck cares if they get the job done. 🙂 I know this disease is a different experience for everyone. Not sure the gloves would help you, but….just in case… I thought I’d let you know about them. They’re called Cabela’s Heated Performance Camo Gloves.
