tick paralysis - Teanaway River


Recommended Posts

"...13-year-old Daniel Smith couldn't move his body to get down from his bunk bed. He couldn't lift his legs or even swallow.

 

"Daniel...was temporarily paralyzed, his doctor later determined.

 

"The cause: a tick found along his hairline at the nape of his neck...

 

"Tick paralysis, though relatively rare..."

Coming back from the Teanaway yesterday we found a tick just kickin' it on the dash of the car. Wayne quickly dispatched of it and the three of us proceeded with the pseudo gay manshow tick inspection in the parking lot of the burger place outside of Cle Elum. Thankfully we found no more ticks, nor were we acosted by local rednecks.

 

Be careful and check yourself out there!
