Getting Lulled Into a (Please Be Real) Sense of Security

Today they did a followup spray in all of our units, and I got a note saying they’ll come back in 2 weeks for another round.  Somehow, despite its ineffectiveness, I’ve grown to take great comfort in Spray Days, and I have a feeling they’re a security blanket I’ll be afraid to let go of, when this has officially ended.

Still no new bites since the one on my ankle Friday night.  This is hopeful, but it’s also tied with the longest I went between bites before the thermal treatment, so the next few days are important.  It’s so hard, doing my post-shower bite inspections and being relieved when I find nothing, only to wonder whether the next day will break my streak and show me that all my hope was in vain.
