Today’s post on my Substack was first published here in 2017. It describes my first encounter with Anaplasmosis, one of the tick-borne illnesses that is slowly creeping north into Maine. When I wrote that piece, I was living and working in Hancock county, which has more tick-borne disease cases than most other counties in Maine. In Aroostook, way up north, where I now live, we hardly ever see Anaplasmosis (one case in 2022, compared to 78 in Hancock), and even Lyme disease is pretty rare here (12 cases in 2022, compared to 360 in Hancock).

A Lesson Learned
