- <p> RAISA GORBACHEV'S apparent nervous breakdown did not
- surprise top Soviet analysts. The normally vigorous First Lady
- was showing signs of tension when she accompanied her husband
- to the London economic summit in July. Drawing aside Barbara
- Bush, Raisa confided her worries about Mikhail's political
- future, even hinting that she feared for his life. Soviet
- officials in Europe report that she became hysterical several
- times during her Crimean captivity, and speculate that she has
- suffered a stroke and a heart attack.
