    I had a stroke 3 years ago . When the nurse mentioned wheel chair and ramps... I tried to say Fook off but couldn't. She smiled and said you are going to be ok. Home a week later and no fooking wheel chair.

    i worked for 5 years on a stroke unit, i always remember 1 patient he could only say one word when he talked "Whitstable" if you asked him anything he would say "Whitstable" but he was a member of a choir and when he sang could sing a song word for word. the brain is a peculiar organ.

    My dad told a story of a country and western singer with a severe stammer but could sing with no issue. When he was staying in a hotel with another country performer and they where being robbed he tried to raise the alarm and couldn’t get the words out until the other performer told him to sing it! True story. My dads best mate was the producer for country hour on BBC radio and would do all the country festivals and take my dad along with him

    My grandfather had a minor stroke when I was very little. First time is ever been in a hospital, I was expecting him to be covered in wires and tubes. But there was just one tube coming out from under the blankets, into this bag attached to the bed frame. Thinking it was like an IV I told him “I think you need a refill.” Never forget his face as he said “No…I fill it.”

    Visiting my 88 year old mother in law in hospital bed in heatwave July I felt I didn’t know what to say, so I unwittingly said “it’s so cool in here, you’re in the best place. I watched Billy here and it touched a nerve, we humans do often are caught in situations we feel lost or scared and we just blurt out random stuff. The brilliance of Billy can never be fully stated. Thank you for finding such insight into such intimate situations and finding humour in such places as many of us wouldn’t expect. You’re a true wonder, Billy ✌🏻😂😂💪🏻🌹

He was staring at me wanting to say something and all I understood was Pffrgrrtgggtrrfffprgtf!!! so I just stood there mortified, and then I said " You look alright!" and my relative started to make funny noises! I panicked and called the nurse,and she said " What did you do to him!? . I was so much in shock I left the room. Then at home my mom asked me "Did you go to see your uncle?" and I said " Yep! He's fine!! and went to my room traumatized! Needless to say I didn't go to see him again! One last thing, thank you for these videos! You're so funny I just can't stop laughing! THANKS!!!

So We said to my Father in law. ... Don't stick your finger in the cage....... Yes you are right. my Father in law pushed his fingers in the cage. There was blood and flesh all over. Because of His stroke He could not move quickly so Jasper had a good old bite. Only the word was the one my father in law used. For years after We would hear Jasper screaming F u c k My Father in law passed away So. It was a bit spooky. The bird shouted it at People that word in My father in law's voice.

    I had a stroke in 2017. Weird experience. My recovery is about 96%, 97% maybe, even people who have known me my whole life can't tell. I'm really lucky. Anyway. Billy's joke reminds me. I'm in the hospital, they are testing everything to figure out why me, a pretty healthy guy, not overweight, pretty active, only 45, suddenly popped a clot. Unpleasant tests sometimes. Anyway. The doctor running the worst test, in which a camera inside a tube goes down your throat while you're awake to take video of your heart, is a very attractive young Asian woman. maybe 34, 35. She explains that they can't do it any other way, the breastbone is in the way, the camera has to be inside. So she describes this horrid thing and then says, "do you have any questions?". And I said, "Yeah. What's a nice Irish girl like you doing in a terrible place like this?"
