'Confessions of an alcoholic' - Page 98:
He’d had a pacemaker implanted and this was the reason ‘why’ he couldn’t continue on with his career in the police force. If he was suddenly injured in the area of the pacemaker, it could cause permanent injury or death, which was very risky.
He answered an advertisement in the newspaper for the position as an ‘Alcohol and Drug Counsellor’. What a joke, he thought working as a counsellor after all of the alcohol he had drank since twelve years of age. It was to be the start of a new career and direction for Bundy.
At the interview Bundy was surprised when he was asked if he’d ever had a problem with alcohol. ‘I’m an alcoholic. I stopped drinking when I was twenty-eight years old and haven’t touched the stuff since.’ He said in disbelief of them wanting to know about his drinking of alcohol, disregarding his service of twenty years as a Law Enforcement Officer.
He was further surprised when told he had the position. Bundy couldn’t believe his luck. All of the training he’d put into becoming an alcoholic had finally paid off to secure a position depending on the amount of alcohol he’d drank.
His life was about to make a turn of a one hundred and eighty-degree turn around. He didn’t realise it at the time, but he would go on and help many people overcome their own problems with alcohol and drugs issues.
It was a whole new beginning. Those years in the police force enabled him to ‘know the law’ this new position in his life made him think there must be a greater force ‘out there’ guiding his destiny. He never imagined the twist of fate placed on him at that very moment. His mind was about to open up to answer many of the questions he’d been searching for since that first drink of alcohol at twelve years of age.
