A couple years ago I had a tick on my belly and when I tried to pull it
off the head snapped off. I could not get it out. People kept telling me
I had to go to the doctor, so I did. The doctor said there was nothing
he could do. He would just make more of a mess of it than I had. He
said that as it healed the head would be pushed out. He was right. He
was not concerned about disease because it had not been engorged before
I pulled it.
