Re: Doxy & Book On Bb

January 1, 2002

Hi Connie, , and all,

I was amazed when I read your post saying I was angry at you guys. I

couldn't remember one thing I'd said in my previous post that would

make anyone think that so I just re-read it and I'm thinking the

first sentence about " do I dare to try to post again " must be the

problem. It was not about anyone in this group. It was about the

technical problems I've been having with losing posts before I've

sent them and since I'd got one safely posted I was saying like do I

dare to try again and hope another one would last long enough on the

page to be posted. Sorry if you or anyone misunderstood that comment

as anger at any of you. That's the only thing I can think of that

would have possibly offended you.

Yes, my boyfriend is number one and always will be. Let's not argue

about this. I'm sure I'd have a slightly better chance of getting

well if I had the warmth of his love than the agony of being apart

from him but everything has worked against me for years. I guess I

was meant to have a rotten existence.

Anyway I was asking for comments regarding the Rx not how you all

want me to forget the man I love. Again if anyone has thoughts

regarding the specific Rx I'm interested.

Also, wanted to mention a book I just read from the library. It's

called Biography Of A Germ by Arlo Karlen. The Dewey number is

579.32 for anyone looking for it in the library. It's about Bb and

is fast easy reading. The first part of the book is a bit boring or

something but it gets more interesting. The main idea in it seems to

be about how we have changed the ecology in different areas making

them more inviting to deer and ticks and therefore Bb. No mention of

Plum Island though. I thought the discovery that Lyme and the

European ailments of EM and ADM (I think that's wrong--it's the

serious skin ailment Bb can cause.)were the same thing was an

interesting part.

I was interested in your story but your last post seemed to

have been cut off in the middle. Post again if you can!

Madeleine
