We've been lucky enough to get a few hints about Bill Avery's future courtesy of the stars, themselves, but what's actually going on in Hope Valley can give us a bit of insight, as well. At the beginning of Season 10, a hot spring was discovered in the town. There are many reasons why the residents of Hope Valley believe that the springs will benefit their community, but one particularly unusual power may be the key to Bill's well-being.

The springs have some mysterious healing properties, and they seem to be at work on Bill's illness. Faith thinks that there's really something to the springs' surprising abilities and is interested in studying what's going on. In a Facebook live interview with some of the "When Calls the Heart" cast members, Jack Wagner shared what this may ultimately mean for his character. According to Wagner, Bill "sort of hides that this is a healing process for him." He adds that "he's got this little gold mine of health for himself, that eventually he gets busted on and it's pretty funny." Wagner goes on to say "Erin [Krakow, who plays Elizabeth,] and I have a scene actually at the spring where, you know, it's life changing." And according to him, "That's kind of what it represents, and it opens up this whole, you know, sort of new life for Bill."
