Best wishes for Janet's recovery; Lyme disease is constantly in our area as well thanks to the over abundance of White Tail. Also of concern to me is your health Jim. Ask your Doctor about a pro active approach to preventing the malady to yourself. I've heard of people in this area on "routine or maintenance" doses of Tetra or Doxycycline to prevent Lyme's, probably would be beneficial at least to inquire. Stay well and keep Janet comfortable. You're both in our prayers.
