A wrist injury is forcing me to temporarily switch hands, let me know what you have, thanks.

This happened to me many years ago. My daughter got a kick out of watching me try to throw back lefty. One time we were in an indoor facility and my throw back was a good 15ft off line, I hit the thermostat and knocked it off the wall. Good luck.

Lol, I'll probably end up rolling the ball back to her. I'm worried that I have a tendency to zone out sometimes, but will catch the ball at the last second out of reflex. I'm worried I'll catch with the wrong hand!

No need to buy a LH glove because you don't have to throw back to her. Give her a full bucket of balls and you keep an empty bucket by you. Fill it up as she throws to you and she can come switch buckets when hers is empty.

I have the following exact mitt that I can send to you for $25, or you can buy it new as shown in the link. Very good price for the glove you get. It has really good padding and has a nice leather pop. Although a baseball mitt, it does catch a 12" softball with no issues. The only negative I'll point out is that the thumb protection isn't the greatest. I have gotten a few stingers on low pitches on the third base side of the plate. If you have a thumb guard, you'll be set.
