It was about this time during the development of the Rabbit farm that the stress of the final two years of ECYB caught up with me.
I woke one night with this immense burning ‘orange’, glowing and engulfing the whole of my chest. The previous day I had felt strange tingling sensations in my left arm but given them no thought. With the orange was a violent heartbeat almost fit to burst. Ruth was concerned and I was powerless to move, only able to lay flat in bed while sweat poured off me.
I could not possibly allow myself to be carried away as too many furry animals depended on my being there to care for them every morning and evening. So I just had to persuade Ruth that it would pass and not to call for assistance.
It did pass after about two hours; my heartbeat dropped to a reasonable level but left me so weak I could barely raise my arms.
With daylight, I managed to get up and dress but the rest is a blur. I remember having to cross the field to feed the rabbits, but what normally took me just a few minutes now took hours. Crossing the field took 15 minutes resting at each of the fence posts as they came along. I then sat in the feed store to prepare the breakfast for 100 ‘does’ 10 ‘bucks’ and hundreds of offspring and so began what would take over six months to come to terms with.
