First, welcome to the forum and my sympathy for your injury and situation. Second, don't go back to that gun shop. Find one whose employees have some manners and brains.
Pistols are often shot one handed. You may have limitations but there are many guns out there which you can use just fine.
My suggestion is a semi-auto that is single action/double action. Meaning the first shot is double action but follow ups are single. These (at least quality brands) can be safely carried with a round in the chamber and safety not on. Meaning, you can grab and shoot. It can be carried safely as well.
Practice will be very important but that rule applies to everyone, just just you.
Loading the magazine and working the slide to chamber the first round might prove a challenge and require you to develop some techniques. I can't make suggestions for that.
Good luck, carry on and please keep us informed of your progress. I like your spirit and attitude.
