Let's talk hygiene :-P

Deirdre and I were just in Pebble Beach last week. No spiders though. That said, we did stay out of RVs.

Speedy recovery to both of you.

Looks like she gets out of the hospital today. 21 days on IV antibiotics at home, ouch.

I should have a good surplus supply of gowns, gloves and masks for NJC10 next year. Not taking any chances next time

21 days???? Oh hell no!! That's awful man. Hope she's doing better. Seems like you're pretty much fine now.

Misdiagnoses maybe? Though I heard the spider was still in the shoe when he went to the hospital. And I could have sworn I saw one in a garage before.:dunno:

I found an article comparing widow bites to recluse bites... With pictures. Based on what Russ has said, it sounds like recluse bites.

I wouldn't wish those on ANYBODY.

Here's to you and Nicola recovering swiftly.
