Feedback (constructive criticism) Had wrist surgery... Slowly getting back to it.

Pic 1 is my writing today, two months post-op from wrist surgery on my dominant hand. I fell on ice awhile ago and my wrist did not heal well. At its worst, I could not grip a pen, pic 2 was my last journal entry before surgery. I still have to do a second surgery, but I can still strengthen it!

I practice every day by writing as much as I can, like until my hand cramps, but I guess I'm wondering if there's anything else I can do to improve my penmanship. I used to be very proud of it, but now I feel like I've lost a lot of that.

Thanks in advance.
