Well, this story really gives me the creeps. ACK!
Boy has spiders inside his ear. 
I have to presume that both spiders were alive for a time after entering the ear canal, but when flushed out, one was dead, the other alive.
I guess I thought earwax was fatal to insects and spiders. But maybe one spider died shortly upon entering the ear, and the other spider hunkered down ontop its body, and so avoided contact with wax.
One time, my mom and I were walking her dog at night, and we passed underneath a streetlight that had insects flying around it. By chance, one happened to fly right into my ear, where it fluttered around, flapping its wings.
I cannot even begin to tell you what a strange feeling it is to have a living creature moving around inside your head.
It eventually quit moving, and then, presumably, became encased in wax, whereupon it dropped out of my ear a few days later.
But, omigod, the thought of
spiders crawling into one's ear while one is sleeping... EEEEAAAAAA!
I imagine our more arachnophobic members are shivering in horror at the very thought.
Spiders in boy's ear.
