John Dean of Drexel didn't know when or where he got bit, but a brown recluse spider bite caused a cellular death, or necrosis, to a section of the back of his thigh, as well as a secondary infection which spread to a much larger area. Dean goes to Truman Medical Center May 4, 2017, for a follow-up visit. Video by Jill Toyoshiba, story by Andy Marso.
