What's this all about?

     I have been working through a health condition that could have killed me if not treated correctly. My health condition was brought on by ticks - nasty ticks that can transmit several diseases including Lyme Disease in a single bite. I have shared various aspects of my health condition with family and friends and the feedback has been supportive, curious, alarmed. "nastytick" is intended to extend the discussion more easily - to share my story and receive feedback.
