After the black hole healed up, it did not show any tissue damage on the surface. But, I squeezed puss from deep (2") inside of that thing off and on for 10 years until my hysterctomy, when I asked the surgeon to please remove all the tissue around it. It took 3 times longer to heal than my belly-wide incision. He couldn't understand the red nasty scar that wouldn't heal up. I was told this 'poison' lives on human tissue and basically regenerates itself.


Thats where I was hit on the stomach...Its amazing that it never got to your blood....I thought I was totaly healed yet in got into my blood stream...My liver failed ,right kidney shot,heart failer...After 5 years after the bite My heart is still shot ..I have Congestive heart failure and also and to have a implanted defibrillator...Even after all this they said at anytime I could get a recurrence because what they didn't get can lie dormant for up to 10 years..

Get better Dennis!

I wonder if we have Brown recluse spiders here in Ontario..hmm.

Because I woke up the other night and just happened to turn on the light and I saw a brown spider (no bigger than about 4 inches) walking on my pillow right next to where I was lying down!!!
Well... luckily...I'm not afriad of spiders..and luckily..I didn't read this Spider subject til after it happened... all I did was pick him up and put him outside to go free.
He didn't bite me... but maybe he didn't detect me being fearful of him?? Or maybe he wasn't a recluse and just some ordinary brown spider?
Or maybe he was just a baby spider lost from the mommy spider? or grandma spider?? Orrrr maybe he was so thankful that I spared his life...that he couldn't even be bothered to bite me? Or maybe he was sleepy since it was the middle of the night? yes thats it! 8-)
