Bitten by a Spider, Paraplegic of 20 Years Springs Back to LIFE

He was bound to the wheelchair for 20 years and was leading the life of a recluse. Bitten by a Brown Recluse Spider, the 48-year-old paraplegic of a man, David Blancarte might well metamorphose into a party animal. But no, this former dancer and boxer would prefer to wait for his twin daughters - 14-years of age now - to grow up and be married before he hits the dance floor again.

How circumspect can a man become after being relegated to a wheelchair for 20 long years!!

That the man is walking now is a miracle, doctors opine.
"I closed my eyes and then I was spinning like a flying saucer," the man recounts his experience of getting back his life, literally.
The nurse who attended David says that his nerves were alive. It’s just that they had fallen asleep.

It was a motorcycle accident that occurred 21 years ago and almost took his life that had made David clutch his wheelchair for support. After the spider bite happened he had to be kept under supervised rehab for eight months.

Now he can walk.

David however knows that his best days are yet to come. His daughters’ marriage would definitely be a highpoint of his Second Life.
