Bill had a stroke on May 27, 2009 after taking a nap. When he woke up and everything was different, he knew something was wrong but couldn't determine what it was. Three hours later a family member came home and he told them he didn't feel well. They did not take any action, even after Bill took a fall that evening. The next morning he couldn't talk and was taken to the hospital. Bill had a hemorrhagic stroke. He spent over a month in medical care. He is doing well now, but after a very tough year.
