It still amazes me how one can sleep so deeply to the extent that a rodent will chew off part of your body without you waking up.

the rat blows before eating ones leg,that time it will be as if your leg is in air conditioner and the sleep will be very sweet. This type of rat is call ikpequok eka ekpu.

He has peripheral neuropathy from his type 1 diabetes, which means that he had lost the sensations on the said leg.
So, would not feel a thing even if you stab him there.

He’s diabetic! Reduced sensation and circulation are all part of the picture.

how can a rat feast onn your flesh without your feeling the pain?

The rat is skillful in that and blows u cook air as it chews away so u don't feel it much.

Meanwhile he has diabetes and this impairs sensation in the limbs especially that so much so they can step on a nail and won't know they have a wound till dey discover the bleeding or when the legs gets swollen n all that.

Former England and Tottenham defender Gary Mabbutt said a rat ate part of his foot while he was asleep on holiday in South Africa.

The 57-year-old was forced to fly back to the UK for surgery and spent a week in hospital. Mabbutt, who has 16 caps for England, has type 1 diabetes and has little feeling in his feet.

The incident happened six weeks ago when he was visiting his daughter, who is working at the Kruger National Park. "I've gone to sleep and during the night a rat has come into the bedroom, climbed into the bed and has decided to chew on my foot," he said.

"It's made quite a big hole in my toe, going down to the bone, and ate underneath my foot. It bit my daughter's thumb first in the other bedroom, and then she came into me and said 'Dad, something's bitten me'. Being in Africa, you think of snakes and scorpions."

Rat never visit it fingers or toes before na im make u dey talk like this. When chewing on a sleeping person's finger or toes, it fans out cold air on the place so u won't feel the pain. grin that na expert rat
