Man Battles for life after being bitten in the toilet by a Spider
Orlando Jimenez Jimenez, 31, who was bitten by a dangerous species of Spider  is currently suffering from kidney and liver failure while the toxins have also caused his eye and ear to rot. He is currently battling for his life at Honorio Delgado Espinoza hospital in Arequipa, in Southern Peru. 
His mother Felicitas Maria Jimenez said the spider fell on him while in the toilet and bit his left ear. 
Within minutes, his health deteriorated and they took him to a local health centre where he was given an antidote.
But his condition worsened and he is now in an intensive care unit.
Doctors believe he was bitten by the world's most dangerous Species called Chilean Recluse spider. 
This was so because the species is known for causing severe allergic reactions in victims and even death. 
A British barrister told how he nearly lost his leg after being bitten by a brown recluse spider during a flight.
A month before, a 10-year-old Montana boy also died after being bitten on the leg by the same species. 
Last  November, five-year-old Branson Riley Carlisle, from Albertsville in Alabama, U.S., died after he was bitten by a brown recluse spider.
Another victim Jonathan Hogg was bitten on the plane to South Africa, he said: 'The pain was like nothing I've been through in my life. By the time I got to hospital my leg was bursting open, there was pus, it was black. 
'It was a right mess. They told me if I had been any later I would have lost my leg or even died. It was terrifying.'
The current Victim Orlando Jimenez Jimenez, is being taken care of; and the doctors are hopeful.
