G'day Judy,

If the doctor reckons the bite has put something unpleasant into the lymph system ... then a course of antibiotics is definitely the right way to go (basic approach is similar to dealing with Lyme disease [another arbovirus] up in your part of the world!).

Hoping the kangaroo fillet might have helped in your cure might have been asking too much forgiveness from the kangaroo! Hope to see you Thursday. (Now I have to get back to issue #160 of Mulga Wire ... due at the printers Wednesday morning!)

Regards,

Bob Bolton
