You don't have to be out in the country to be bitten by a tick, they tend to jump on animals/people, and "go for a ride", and jump off whenever they choose. Here in Wisconsin, tick bites are numerous, and even being around a pet that has been outdoors can be dangerous, as we detick our dogs, cats, etc., regularly, so wouldn't surprise me a bit where Katherine might have gotten this bite. I got the bite with the bullseye, just walking in my backyard, and the tick buried itself under my sock, and I found it too late, the deed was already done at that time. Lyme disease is a terrible thing, not only aggravates existing diseases, but can make you wish you were dead sometimes, rather than trying to cure the symptoms. It is a vicious sneaky disease.
