Overview
- Frank Cuesta was bitten by a spitting cobra at his animal sanctuary in Thailand on April 18, resulting in severe facial swelling and potential eye damage.
- Updates from his partner, Paloma Ramón, confirm that Cuesta is stable, out of immediate danger, and has been moved to a general ward for recovery.
- Doctors are reportedly surprised by Cuesta's resilience to the cobra's neurotoxic and cytotoxic venom, which can cause necrosis, paralysis, and blindness if untreated.
- Cuesta's recovery is expected to take one to two weeks, with ongoing treatment for his vision and other symptoms caused by the venom exposure.
- The incident follows a challenging period for Cuesta, marked by legal disputes over alleged illegal animal possession and his temporary withdrawal from social media and YouTube.
