I'm glad you went to the Dr and found out what was wrong.  I had to be really careful with Muffin, because cold air (air conditioning) or simply sticking her nose out the car windows when the temp was in the 50's would bring the tonsillitis on.  I always had to keep checking her at night when I rolled over to be certain she was still covered up, because if she got too cold, she'd wake up coughing like you described.  I know that sound by heart.  Believe me!  I'm glad you talked about the tick bite, because I didn't know that and it is certainly good to be aware of it.  Who knows?  Any of us could have that happen!  So glad your little angel Maddie is on the mend tonight.  Take care.
