Hi Mike and Chris: I was wondering if Mike might have the West Niles Virus? One of the symptoms is a fevor. I am not sure of how they treat this. I hope you can ask the doctor. It's possible that Mike was bit by a mosquito and he wouldn't even be able to draw the connection if he didn't remember being bit. I will call as soon as I can from Butch. I am sorry to hear that Mike is very ill and I hope for his recovery! [email protected]
