I thought he must have got banned again, by his absence .

Welcome back Bill.

Bill, Glad you're on the mend. Look after yourself and welcome back.

GET BETTER BILL .

BILL WILLIAMSON · 01-13-2017, 06:12 PM

Thanks everyone, back at home & feeling good. Getting back to normal stuff is my best therapy. I "think" the hammer blow to my head cleared my brain of some cobwebs.
Nurse said my TIMING seems to be spot ON, I told her to search Fordbarn to be sure it's OK.
Dog's OK, after being "home alone" for 2 weeks, he's a REAL TROOPER!
Almost came home naked (EEK)---My dirty laundry was LOST, for 2 weeks, was sporting someones'??? old clothes, from the LOST & FOUND, NOTHING matched & NO UNDERWEAR (EEK, again)---LOL---The CUTE Gals loved it! One said FIG LEAVES were out of season!

Bill, You're so funny I would check the BARN just to see if you posted a laugh. Pet the dog for me!

Hi Bill,
Get well soon

larrys40 · 01-13-2017, 10:05 PM

Glad you're back Bill... time to get back in the saddle!
All the best to you for the New Year,

Terry, NJ · 01-13-2017, 10:21 PM

Hey Bill, You didn't lose your sense of humor and that's good! Most of whatever you lost will come back! It just takes time and therapy! When I had mine, I sounded like I had a mouth full of marbles. Most of my speech has come back, I still stutter occasionally But it's all good! Best of luck!

Welcome back Bill. Hope your recovery goes well and you are back to your "old" self again.

blgitn · 01-13-2017, 11:00 PM

God bless, Bill. Glad to have you back.

Art Newland · 01-13-2017, 11:34 PM

Get well quick! Bet dog was happy to see you.

daveymc29 · 01-13-2017, 11:51 PM

Bill get well. I'll give you a book free, if you PM me your address. I love your wit.

BILL WILLIAMSON · 01-13-2017, 11:54 PM

SERIOUSLY, Like MANY of you, I've had a shitload of traumas & without some "humor", I don't think I could have endured them!

Ron in Quincy · 01-14-2017, 12:41 AM

Bill,

Glad you are back and OK !!!!!

Still have not determined if John Rude, your Auto Shop teacher is relation ?

The last person I met with the last name Rude was a Mining Engineer in Cherry Creek, Nevada; he was full blooded Norway, no relation.

RUNNERBUN · 01-14-2017, 01:21 AM

Here is a big welcome Bill, sorry I could only afford a Fifty Dollar Bill

Brentwood Bob · 01-14-2017, 02:14 AM

Well, I wondered where you went. Did the dog lose weight when you were gone?
Bob

Synchro909 · 01-14-2017, 05:05 AM

Did the dog's typing improve? Probably not he didn't post once while you were away.

I think Buster was too busy looking up those Adult Web pages while Bill wasn't around to keep him on the straight and narrow. "shame Buster, shame"

Bob

There you are, Brother Bob
I think of you often, when pondering Vermins' ZIP-A-RAK
Buster T. didn't lose weight, my DEAR Friends, across the street, kept his food topped up & socialized with him.
Like here on Ford Barn, it's GREAT to have friends that give a shit about Me & my Dog.
Grateful Bill W.

Bill,
I have been there and done that. The worst part was having to stay in the Hospital during the Xmas season.

Getting back into the model A hobby was a direct result of my stroke. I felt that resurrecting all my old model A restoration skills and knowledge would be good for me. It was!

Just to let you know that the brain does heal with time. When I first got home I found that my short term memory was fried! It was like living in a world where stuff just disappeared. I would put some thing down and not remember that I did, so to me it had just disappeared! That is all better now. I am now back to misplacing things at me old "normal" rate!

The only on going effect of the stroke is that during a conversation, occasionally a word will be a little slow to come to me. Luckily that is not an issue when typing a post.

Bill, hang in there, keep yourself busy, challenged, and soon you be back to normal. Or at least as normal as you were before the stroke!

Terry,
I noticed a "lisp" in the L/H side of my mouth, but it's getting better. Most folks don't notice it.

Pager,
I was once waiting to have my PAINFUL shoulder restored, next opening wuz on March first----Except there was one on Christmas Eve----I TOOK it----Strange, my stroke happened on Christmas Eve, also, SO I also know what it's like to have Holidays in the Horsepital & eat "fake" Turkey & Stove Top Stuffin'---LOL

1930marie · 01-14-2017, 11:02 PM

I wondered why we were'nt hearing from you. Glad to see your comments again, your big black bold font is like sheet music to my eyes.

And if you must know, my Marie (40b), just doesn't run the same (sputters a lot) without your tips. I did finally remember she needed her cod liver oil (MMO) just like you give youre pooch and she seems to be better now. She just doesnt like that new fangled pump cocktail they call c#%p gas! Sorry about all the contractions, I know they bug you!

Praying for your speedy recovery Uncle Bill.
