Nobel winner Seamus Heaney recalls secret visit from Bill Clinton

Seamus brings out the best in us. May God bless and heal him.

Best wishes to Seamus. He was kind to me when he taught me in Careysfort many years ago. I remember once discussing docken leaves and another time a special trip to see Translations. they are fond memories. We need more true gentlemen like him. We also need more leaders like Clinton, bless his heart for all he did for Ireland. Do take it easy, a chara. Many thanks for the magic of your words.

I,too,had a stroke in Donegal, and went to the same hospital in Donegal (from Bunbeg where I used to live) in the fall of 2007! Now I am back in America (where I'm from). I, too, am an admirer of President Clinton. Happy days for you and for me!

Maith go leoir, Seamus!
