It's a suck situation, but it's also one heard from several sources on NaNo.
On two occasions over a 5-year period, for a total of half a year (4 months, then two), my writing arm was pretty much useless, and I was basically one-armed.
I also had writing deadlines.
Another person would have just blown off those deadlines, maybe used a disability as an excuse to. Not me. I continued to type one-handed. I was slower, but still made it.
If I can be stubborn enough to get things done because I want to, despite Fate making them difficult, then so can you.
The situation stinks, and it may take some extra work to get passed it, but if you want to then you will.
Cue the Kate Bush song:
