Thanks, Stefan. I like your b) choice. <br>
Could it also be written this way - to indicate that it's just below
the shoulder?<br>

at your spelling –
the palm is down not up – so this way it is difficult for the pinky to

<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3" color="black"
face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">A member of my
late-deafened support group was trying
to describe a sign he had just learned for "chemo"
(chemotherapy). He described it this way:<br>
<br>
<br>
<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<pre><font size="2" color="black" face="Courier New"><span
style="font-size: 10pt;">"Open four hand, palm up, tap pinky to the chest where a port<o:p></o:p></span></font></pre>
<pre><font size="2" color="black" face="Courier New"><span
style="font-size: 10pt;">would be - just below the shoulder joint, in the meat of the<o:p></o:p></span></font></pre>
<pre><font size="2" color="black" face="Courier New"><span
style="font-size: 10pt;">pectoral muscle"<o:p></o:p></span></font></pre>
<pre><font size="2" color="black" face="Courier New"><span
style="font-size: 10pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></font></pre>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3" color="black"
face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">That's a little
ambiguous to me as I don't know which
hand or shoulder, if the fingers are splayed or if the little finger
touches
once or twice. If I take it to be the right hand's little finger
touching
the chest just below the right shoulder, palm up, thumb tucked, fingers
splayed, touching just once, would this be correct?<br>
