(CBS4) – Heidi Ganahl’s daughter Jenna recently went camping near Bailey and when she got home Heidi made an important discovery.
“I was putting her hair in a ponytail and I noticed a couple of ticks,” says Heidi.
“A couple days later her foot went to sleep and it was still asleep the next morning and her shin was asleep, too,” Heidi said.
The rare disease is caused when a neurotoxin secreted by the tick when it is feeding enters the bloodstream. If left untreated it can be fatal.
