everyone was like "oh just wash the area and you'll be fine"
I was late to work this morning because I was so busy posting to the girl about what she should do.
Made me sad that people don't know what to do in these situations.
I told her to save the tick for testing but she already flushed it.
She lives in NC. I didn't want to scare her but I wish someone would have been there to help me :/
