Black Widow Bites More Often Than Not, Just Cause Major Discomfort
Jack Schonhof of Jack’s World of Wildlife posted a video where he allowed a black widow to bite him. While he noted that the black widow bite wasn’t as lethal as people believed it to be, it’s still not suggested that people allow a black widow to bite (yes, we had to say this). Jack underwent two weeks of symptoms following the black widow bite, which included “the worst” lower back pain. In the video, Jack points out that it actually takes quite a bit to provoke a black widow. “Again, these widow spiders a very, very, very reluctant to bite. The only way you’re realistically going to be bitten by a black widow is if you pin it to your skin.” He explained. “So, if you’re leaving your shoes outside, check your shoes. If you’re leaving stuff in your garage that you’re putting on, check it before you put it on.“

He had gone above and beyond to support his stepdaughter financially, paying for her college education and helping her with transportation. However, what troubled him the most was the special treatment she gave to her biological father, who had a history of breaking her heart.

As the wedding drew nearer, the stepfather discovered that his request to invite 20 of his close friends and family members to the wedding had been ignored. He found out that none of them had received actual invitations, and his name was conspicuously missing from the announcement card.
