Rogue, a mother of three, still has scars, rashes and an eye patch from the venomous bites and spent several days in hospital.
“What really worries me is my eye. It hurts a lot. I don’t know what’s going to happen to it,” he told the local media outlet.
TO GoFundMe $2,360 has been raised to help Rogue with medical expenses.
Organizer Morgan Underwood wrote: ‘You’ll also need to call a pest control service to deal with the spider infestation.
The swelling on Rogue’s lip is due to “non-cancerous lymphoma/tumor and a broken piece of her tooth embedded in her upper lip.”
Rogue told KPTV that she was trying to clean a dirty web when she felt the spiders on her body.
‘The swelling on her face has gone down a lot. She is now covered in a painful, itchy rash. Her arms, neck and chest are also covered in a painful, itchy rash, and the areas where she was bitten have blisters, so we are keeping an eye on that.
“His right eye is giving him some trouble, so he may need to see a specialist for an examination soon.”
Underwood also clarified that the swelling on Rogue’s lip is due to “non-cancerous lymphoma/tumor and a broken piece of her tooth embedded in her upper lip.”
The venom from spider bites kills tissue, causing large lesions that often require medical treatment.
‘This is from an accident she had years ago, when she was hit by a truck while riding a bicycle.’
Underwood said Rogue’s insurance does not cover the lymphoma removal because it is considered a cosmetic procedure.
