Rhonda kept her playmates in the attic for hours, as more serious cases required suitably invasive procedures. Dorian told his mother he never wanted to visit Rhonda again. Elise asked her mother if she could come back every day.

![A spoonful of ether syrup at bedtime
Dr Henry Bigelow, author of Insensibility during surgical operations produced by inhalation (1846), reports that from his own experience the effects of inhaling sub-anaesthetic doses of pure ether were almost as exhilarating as nitrous oxide “or of the Egyptian haschish” [hashish]. Dr Bigelow sought to reassure his readers that ether was benign. He recalls how there was “scarcely a school or community in our country where the boys and girls have not inhaled ether, to produce gayety.”

Rhonda became addicted to ether as a child, when a caretaker provided ether spirits combined with sugar and cinnamon. That period was the only time she remembered feeling happy.
