During my first rainy seasons on the island I was so wet and cold that I became extremely ill. Obviously I had no medication and for a week I lay in my cave, certain that I was going to die. One day I fell asleep and each time I woke up, I fell asleep again immediately. I slept like this for two whole days and when I finally felt a little better, I knew I was lucky to be alive. Because of this I learned to spend most of the wet seasons in my cave and always made sure I had enough food.
