My absense - and beware, truly, of the deer tick!

[Southern Gardener]

Ann, I'm terribly sorry to hear that. I'm glad you're on the mend and back on TEG. Take care of yourself!

 

[Catalina]

I hope you feel better soon

Those nasty ticks!

Ann I agree with BBH relax and re coop let those that are there to help you do what they can it will make them feel good and you feel better Sounds as if you have gone through a great deal I am so very glad you are on the mend

I found a tick last night myself, as I went to put lotion on my feet before bed. The nasty critter was in between my little toe and it partner toe. How or where is was able to get there I don't know. Crazy No rash or itch there at all now. After Ipulled it off I gave Mr Tick a Bleach bath It dissolves them into almost nothing

I will keep you in my thoughts and pray you continue to mend. :bouquet

I have a flat top stove...I turn the burner on and drop the suckers on it...my kids like it when they *pop*!

Oh gosh Ann - that's so scary! My husband was just diagnosed with it as well; he went to the doctor as soon as the rash appeared. He'll be on antibiotics for three weeks.

And no rash, so you had no idea, even more frightening. I know it doesn't appear in all cases and the early symptoms are so non-specific that in the abense ofthe rash there is really no sure sign one has it.

Oh my I hope you get back on your feet quickly... a good cure for ticks are chickens even a few will rid your yard of them I have 6 ravenous birds scouring every inch of my 1/2 acre of land...and have noticed the absence of all kinds creepy crawlies...and I have fat birds

Sorry to hear about your illness, but thanks for the warning. I get my husband to check me for ticks whenever I work in the brush piles or helping with firewood, but I think I might start checking when I spend a lot of time in the garden now too or anytime outside period (we live in the middle of the woods - literally surrounded by forests). I'll start staying on him a little harder too, those dang things pop up all the time out of nowhere, I've already had to pull two off me since the beginning of July.

Hope you get lots of rest and heal up soon.

I'm glad your sister was on her toes! I hope you heal up quickly! Meanwhile, get plenty of rest.
