  (Do you think about your hands?)
- Yes, a lot. 

(How do you feel about your hands)
- I’m really, self-conscious about my hands, fist of it because I have eczema, and it shows up a lot on my hands. Second of all, because they’re really short and stubby, and my thumbs are really round, and I do not like it. 

(Your favourite and least favourite thing about your hands?)
- They’re very useful, I do a lot of handy works, crocheting, knitting, drawing, bead-working, so they are handy. 

(Do your hands play a part in your self–expression?)
- Yeah, for sure. 

(Any scars or marks on your hands?)
- Not really scars, I do have the eczema. I have on scar, or line, somewhere, from archery. I got it from the from the string, cause, when I would let go of my teeny tiny bows when I was a kid, it would sling my hand, and I think that’s where I got the scars.
