Without seeing your father it is hard to give answers as such over the internet and a continent away.......................but........................

Taking into account that your father is a diabetic, he is going to have decreased ability to heal and is probably going to the OR for more debridement, removing of dead tissue. The spider can cause some tissue sloughing and you father is having problems with that aspect. That being said, because he had an arrest on the table does, not mean that he will have another one. Anesthesia itself is not without complications, they do happen but not routinely. Any procedure has its risks. It is an invasive procedure.

Good luck to you and your father........................... :balloons:
