This is really nasty!
« on: May 07, 2007, 03:29:53 pm »
This is just about the most disgusting thing I've read in a long time!  :P

I have this terrible fear of things crawling in my ears; especially when I'm sleeping. God how awful!

Some fire ants once crawled in my ear and I had to pour rubbing alcohol in there to get them out. It was terrible.

But SPIDERS!!!   :o

 :P  :P

My ex-boyfriend's ex-roommate had to be driven to Emergency one night - he was in a lot of pain - and the doctor on staff pulled a roach from his ear canal.

Oh I hope she will be okay! I'm sure it's just an earache. But if she is still hurting tomorrow, you might want to shine a flashlight in her ear just to make sure.

WHOO!!!  :o

Oh God. Did it crawl in his ear while he was sleeping?

I don't know which would be worse, a roach or a spider.  :P

And I thought those fire ants were bad.

Time to invest in a set of earplugs. ...

Yes, it crawled in his ear when he was sleeping.

In order to get him to relax, the doctor told him it was simply a small spider.  Then she had to tweeze the roach out in pieces.   :-X

I thanked all the gods for my long hair which tends to snarl and capture anything that might come near my ears.
