Follow up on Bill Williamson

[Maclab58]

Hello all,
I had a very nice chat with Bill tonite. He is doing great! His physical therapy is going well and they are pushing him hard to build up his strength. He won't be able to have full weight bearing on his fractured leg for 3 months, but he is ok with that. He realizes how lucky he is to be hit by a car and still be with us! He told me the food is great and he is enjoying the 3 square meals a day and not having ti cook it himself! I told him about the thread started earlier about his accident and how there were at least 4 pages of well wishes. He was humbled to hear that so many of us care about he and Buster T. You could hear the smile in his voice! As for Buster he is being cared for by friends and neighbors and is doing well. I will call him again in a few days and report back.

Jim

Times two. We are all concerned about Bill but I can't help but worry about the little fella, Buster T. You can bet he's fretting over Bill. For goodness sakes I hope they will allow him to visit Bill. It will really be good for both of them!!! Purdy, thinking about both of them.

[Maclab58]

I wish you all could talk to Bill in person, he is such an up beat, positive guy. I understand why people gravitate to his post. I will call him again in a day or two and report back. Everyone needs a Bill in their world!

[Fullraceflathead]

Great News!

[mshmodela]

Tell Bill we're all pulling for his speedy recovery.

[gpits68]

Very glad to hear he is doing well , Looking forward to having him back in The Barn.

[midgetracer]

Great News.... We need Bill around so Buster T can keep posting.

[Purdy Swoft]

Ain't that the truth!!!!!!!

[Ken Ehrenhofer]

I hope Bill comes back real strong, I know he will! During my recent heart attack I just want to say thanks for all of you who showed concern and prayers! It means a lot to those of us who are ill, Thanks to all and I hope bill gets back soon I always enjoy his posts.

[Muttley]

I just heard this afternoon about Bill, so glad it was not more serious.

[Charlville]

Good to hear

The old adage is you don't know what you have til it's gone holds true. Hurry back Bill and bring that smart little dog Buster T. We indeed miss you both ! Besides that this place is not the same without our mayor !

[Mitch//pa]

Talked to dad last night all is still pretty much status quo as Jim mentioned in post #1. He was feeling a little crappy from the meds but seems to have turned that corner. He is very perky and likes the food, but I'll have to see if they have jet fuel coffee available...
I passed on the well wishes from everyone incld all the pm's i received.

[Indiana A. Lover]

Make sure Bill has the best of care and plenty to eat, and lots of nurses to tend to him!! Every one at Smiths repair is praying for his speedy recovery, Don in Indiana

[ct1932ford]

Good News! What's for dinner?

[Purdy Swoft]

Bill probably likes not having to do the cooking himself .

[dlfrisch]

Push on Bill, I have been in and on a lot hospital stuff. I can't remember the all of the things I have been through. My son says, am modified and I have been revamped. So, to you, think Model A and get well.

Bill or us are dearly paying for it.

[Joe K]

I imagine that Buster T is being kept at a home without computer - otherwise we would have heard from Bill already.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_the_...you%27re_a_dog



We do miss him of course.

Buster T that is.

Maybe kidding.

[ian Simpson]

Thank you very much for the news. Please keep it coming.

[Mitch//pa]

He is actually a very good cook and enjoys it.. I doubt they are cooking him up squirrel so he'll have to persevere through that. Maybe crosscut can ship him in ready to eat ones

[CarlG]

No doubt Bill is keeping himself busy (in addition to chasing the nurses)

[Mitch//pa]

Nov 21st is a tentative date to have the break rechecked for fusion and a decision for his return home. Buster is staying with a neighbors dog so he is having a good time and as bill said " he and buster are both tough as nails and can adapt easily to conditions".

[Ted Duke]

OMG jet fuel coffee. I'll never forget the taste. The boilers had to have pure water, we could tolerate a lot of parts per million. LOL

[Mitch//pa]

Bill had is leg reevaluated yesterday it's coming along but not yet where it needs to be to go home... he has received most of his medical equipment for when he does get out, but as mentioned before he wont be able to put weight on it for months...
his spirits are high though as he has been through much worse...cindy was in so he read some of the posts on her ipad ,,,,he thanks you all for your thoughts and prayers.

[Don/WI]

Good to hear that Bill is on the mend. He seems to be a hearty person so I'm sure he'll have a lot to say when he gets back on this site. He is in my thoughts and prayers, because I know that they help. I really enjoy his threads even though I don't participate much. I learn a lot by just reading. Don/WI

[31 Model A]

I've heard a lot about Bill....hope to meet him soon.

[Purdy Swoft]

Still hoping for the best and a Quick recovery.

My thoughts and prayers are with you, Bill.

You'll be glad you did as he is like no other. He can turn a rainstorm into liquid sunshine.
Get well soon my friend, we miss you and the dawg !

[Purdy Swoft]

Thanks Mitch for keeping us posted .

Does Santa have his "new" address??

FWIW:

Sometimes in life we may want to complain about what we think are big things.

Usually a little later on, in thinking back, we finally realize that they were really such small things to worry about.

For those of us who really know & appreciate Mr. Bill Williamson, he is truly a tremendous inspirational strong gentleman who has always refused defeat in life & even today, he knows he is still inspiring all of us to never give up.

[700rpm]

Go get 'em, Bill!

[BILL WILLIAMSON]

More later, jist spent HOURS tryin' to git my 3360 modem to hook up to the broadband +*%$%$#$$&^---I think the dog's been messin' with my computer while he was HOME ALONE for 34 days!
I'm finally home, the place looks like a HOSPITAL, with all the stuff they sent here. Buster T. spent the night under the covers with me in the hospital bed.

Hello Bill....pleased to meet you.

Ed

[oldwoodsman]

Good to hear your back home Bill. If I was you I'd check the odometer on Vermin I heard Buster has been out tooling around while you were away.

[Barry B./ Ma.]

Glad to hear you're home Bill. I bet Buster T is glad yer home too. I know how it is living in with the hospital bed, I had one in the living room when I broke my leg in that darn skiing accident back in the 70s. Things will get better now with you back on the computer and Buster T by your side. Good luck, Barry
