Doctor Finds Spiders Living In Boy's Ear
Updated: 09:02, Monday May 07, 2007
When a young boy went to see his doctor complaining of constantly hearing a faint popping noise he did not expect to be told he had spiders living in his ear.
It was not long before the sound in the nine-year-old's head started to become earache, so his mother took him to a GP.
Imagine this fella in your ear...!
Diane Courtney told the doctor in their home town of Albany, Oregon, that her son was hearing noises like "like Rice Krispies".
And after a short examination, Jesse Courtney literally could not believe his ears when the doc told him that a pair of eight-legged creepy crawlies had set up home in his head."They were walking on my eardrums," Jesse said, explaining the popping noise.
When Dr David Irvine flushed out the boy's left ear canal, the first spider came out dead.
But the other little blighter needed a second dousing before it came out - still alive.
Jesse was given the spiders - now both dead - as a souvenir and has taken them to school to show his pals.
