That's insane... I hate to imagine without the graft there....

You are probably very happy that you didn't lose a limb after all that damage. At least you are getting better now. Hopefully you will remain infection free through the process and your full recovery will be speedy.

all of that from a spider bite?

Rahr!!

wow, nasty, my mom was bit on the hand by a brown recluse a few months ago but she was lucky and there was no necrosis.

Whom did you promise to?

You use a word like 'whom' and then end your sentence with a preposition?

How long has it been since the spider bite?

Thank you, my good sir.

This should really not be an excuse, but English is not my first language. 😳

that'll buff right out.

Telugu. Much less known outside of the country, but it is the 3rd most popular language.

I've heard of it, but that's it.

2 months ...

 

[Locut0s]

2 months ...

Wow. How long have you been in the hospital? What's the cost to you finanically for all this?

 

[Red Storm]

All that from a tiny little spider? Scary. Good thing they aren't on the East Coast...

I don't think I'd be able to continue on if I knew I had cadaver skin. Thankfully for my grafts (car accident) they used my thigh and chest as donor sites.

It's all in your head though. There's really no difference.

Tis only a flesh wound

Remind me, what are the other types of wounds again?

 

[MisterJackson]

I'm at work the other day, and my dog (A 10 pound Min Pin) was pouncing on, and growling at something. It was a brown recluse. He'd pick it up with his mouth and throw it then run over to it and pounce on it. I was both horrified and proud all at once.

It's a dead guys skin. That would be enough. That its skin wouldn't concern me, and I hope they are giving me drip morphine because I'd be freaking out. It's that the guy (or girl) it was formerly attached to is dead.

You should sue the hospital where they treated the bite. Spiders don't do that, unsterilized medical equipment/conditions do. It would be quite odd if you had necrotizing bacteria around your home, so it almost surely came from the MD.

you should do a little more research on the Brown Recluse, it does happen.

 

[GTaudiophile]

Holy Christ! All that from a fucking spider?

Where do you live so I can avoid that part of the country?
