Chapter 3 - Schooling

I attended school at Holy Cross, in Second Avenue, Alexandra Township. It was a Roman Catholic school.  I attended from Sub A, now Grade 1, to Standard 2, or Grade 4, from 1949 to 1952.

I became very sick in 1952. My mother took me to Dr Klas at the intersection of Third Avenue and Selbourne Street.  Afterwards, he started giving me intramuscular injections at home on a daily basis. I didn't know what was wrong with me. I used to have hallucinations. At other times I would scream with my eyes fixed to the ceiling.

I would point to the ceiling, 'seeing' frightening creatures...
