The Villa finally start scouring the lower leagues and beyond for young exciting talent and @Villan4Life nearly keels over in shock. Don't go now buddy we need you to come back to tell us who all these players are! How will VT function if we can't decide whether a player is crap or not before he's kicked a ball for us.

As I not seen or heard anything u til you posted about It I forget the names now and can’t find them but there was some winger from Macclesfield I think, Hamilton I think his name was. And a full back from Barry Town who looks like Dani Alves (when playing against fat Welsh part timers). Been a few links to random youngsters across Europe too. Could all be BS who knows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just thinking, with a forum of mostly men, some tell tale signs, or feelings, or things you've learned from the Dr's looking after you may well be worth sharing? Apart from the F.A.S.T adverts on TV a few years ago, I wouldn't know the proper tell tale signs of a Stroke happening. If it's too soon, I understand - Just keep getting better! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must be progressing well. No doubting it's all hard work, but it sure seems like you've got a handle on it. Best of luck, and here's to meeting those targets 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Villan4Life Posted February 3, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 3, 2019 I'm walking around house without use of pod already I've left pyshio I not met before who visited yesterday gobsmacked as never seen someone do what I can do and climb stairs so quickly before within day being out hospital.Hopefully be walking outside this time next week. So happy right now at progress I'm making and three pyshio’s at hospital said I wouldn't be able do any of this for months and months before I left on Friday. My mind and body was telling me otherwise. A good friend of mine a well respected scout has arranged when I'm well for myself and my fiancee go watch Man City game of my choice once better. 18 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from the F.A.S.T adverts on TV a few years ago, I wouldn't know the proper tell tale signs of a Stroke happening. If it's too soon, I understand - Just keep getting better! Given Chris had no signs, I thought that I would share my own "warnings" before my stroke happened in case it might possibly help anyone. I was having a couple of beers with mates in Warwick a couple of days before it happened and I felt strange when sitting in a chair in a pub and then again when walking back a couple of miles to the railway station. My legs felt a little "shaky" is the only way that I could describe it. A couple of days later, I went into the garden to do a job and had difficulty raising my foot to get over the step and back into the conservatory afterwards, this time the leg "trembled" and was unresponsive. A couple of hours later that day, I was in a supermarket and found myself veering left with my trolley and my left leg was "dragging" along. I was only able to continue by using the trolley as support, my left hand was shaking when I got to the checkout and I had difficulty in packing and paying for my shopping as my co-ordination was then impaired. Each of these events lasted 15-30 minutes and I really should have known something was badly wrong straight away but I returned to normal or near normal each time and I can only think that the illness was contributing to me not thinking straight and acting urgently following these events/warnings to get myself checked up by the GP/hospital. Later that night, I had become unsteady on my feet and fell to the floor on making my way to the bedroom. I made several attempts to get back up but was unable to do so. Like a fool, I continued these attempts for a couple of hours, rather than shout for help and it was not until my wife found me still on the floor unable to move my left leg and arm as well as with a dropped face that the penny dropped. With hindsight, I really should have done something or made more of these incidents or told my wife seriously how I had felt earlier. Instead I tried to shrug it/shake it off. All that I can suggest, is that if at any point you or anyone you know feels strange for no known reason then get it checked out rather than ignore it! It is better to be safe than sorry! I hope that sharing this might help someone in the future. Edited February 3, 2019 by John 10 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
