My friend's granddaughter, Nicole was bitten by a tick on Vancouver Island about four years ago. She is in a wheelchair, and has missed two years of high school. Her family has found it difficult - no, impossible - for her to get proper treatment in Canada. As a result they have sold the family home in order to take her to the United States for treatment. This is a national disgrace. If Nicole had been diagnosed and treated promptly, she would be living the life of a normal teen-ager. I am sorry Mr. Magnotta died, and my sympathy goes to his family. However, his death has brought this disease out into the public domain, so it has had a benefit after all. Everyone should be aware of the seriousness of Lyme disease.
