Dear Jane, January 24, 2011

Bass has a cold, least he is showing symptoms of one and I am afraid the best thing I can do for him is feed him strawberries and hope his immune system can fight it off, though if his symptoms get any worse I will take him to the veterinarian and that should remedy the cold situation. The temperature though is not helping anything, poor Korsack has the worst cough I have ever heard in my life and it worries me but he only shrugs me off and smiles at my efforts to help him, he keeps saying that he gets colds like this every few years. It is odd that I don't ever remember him getting one in all the years I've worked with him but then again it's not like he and I were very interactive back then, so he is most likely right. How are you holding up during this cold winter? I hope you haven't gotten as sick as Korsack has, Frankie keeps telling me that Rizzoli's don't get sick, ever, but I find that medically impossible because everyone gets sick. The tests I was running are done, the machines just beeped. Till next time Jane.

Yours Always,

Maura Isles
