I wonder why it decided to pop out then, it had been on her so long already! Yuck! |
I was at a friends house who lives by some fields, etc. I got home & took a shower. While in the shower I felt a sting & looked down to see this black thing. I frantically tried to rinse it off & when it didn't, I knew what it was. I screamed bloody murder & was crying before I even realized it, lol. I jumped out of the shower & thought I should get an ambulance

, lmao
now. My dad rushed over & tried to pull it off, saying are you sure it's not a mole?



, then took me to my mom's who used tweezers. I had a nickel sized raised bump for weeks that the docs kept an eye on it for lymes & they were very surprised I felt it attach.
