Paraplegic man suffered a spider bite and started walking again



Paraplegic man suffered a spider bite and started walking again

A motorcycle accident almost killed David Blancarte 21 years ago. He was spared his life, but was unable to move his legs. He was confined to a wheelchair for 20 years. But two years ago, he was
bitten by a brown recluse spider and was hospitalized for and spent 8 months in physical therapy.

In therapy, a nurse noticed a spasm in one of Blancarte's legs and run some tests. Five days later David was walking again.
