Thanks for the insight, Nina. I'd be interested to know names of any of the books that you particularly like/recommend (as recommended by Gypsy and Zevon's reader). best, Kerry

Kerry, Apparently, Dox is used long-term in fighting Lyme disease etc. in humans. Some people are on it for over a year. If I remember correctly, Dox does not "kill" the parasite it's fighting, it retards growth. Patients with healthy immune systems will fight off the parasite with the help of Dox keeping it under control, but it takes a long time. I guess because Grace's immune system is not up to par, she's unable to get whatever parasite is bothering her under control. I'm not pleased about it, but I don't seem to have any choice. As far as male vs. female in picking up my moods, I'd have to say it's more an individual thing. All my animals respond to my moods, (poor things! I have to get some sort of assistance with regulating my mood swings!). Well, come to think of it, Ursula couldn't care less, unless it's directed specifically at her. I think it's more about how in tune I am with them, so that I notice things that might get by, for instance, my husband. I'm always picking up on things involving my clients dogs that they marvel at. I don't think I'm communicating telepathically, I just use my experience and am hyper sensitive to their needs. I've always been "in tune" with animals, but caring for the FelV cats has revved it up a notch. Knowing they're a gift I may not be able to keep, and having to keep such a watchful eye on illness, has made me even more aware than I used to be. Speaking of AC, I've just ordered some books suggested by the lady that read Gypsy and Zevon for me. I'll let you know if I have any breakthroughs!
