My dad lost his sense of smell and he only sweated on one side of his body. He fell from the top of a barn working on the hay fork.He told me that somebody pulled the wrong rope or the trip rope when he was trying to get the fork un jammed.He fell to the barn floor and landed on the ground,just missing the wagon.This was in 1954 just after arriving in Canada from holland. Toke him to the hospital and they didnt know what to do back then. He lived with this all his life. He said the smell loss wasn't to bad except when he would stumble onto something that didnt smell to good and came home smelling like that.Mom wasnt to happy when this happened.The no sweating bothered him more,because the sweating cools you down.On a hot day of haying he would come out of the loft soaked on one side and as dry as could be on the other side. Was kind of wierd to see if you didnt know of his condition.My dad died 2 years ago now and this just reminds me of him and the work we did together. I guess I do miss him more than I thought.
