>This is a very very tragic story. Is this possible? Ear mites traveling to >the brain? I have never heard of such a thing... I'm just a pharmacist so I don't know for sure, but, I had a miature pinscher as a child who had chronic ear mites and had to be put down because the vet said that they had gone to his brain. Remember I was only 17 at the time and that was a looong time ago, but, it stuck in my brain. Tom [Posted in FML issue 1731]
