Boy\'s fatal spider bite taken - PHOTO

Three photographs taken by five-year-old Branson Riley Carlisle's mother chart the progress of the fatal spider bite that tragically ended his life the Sunday before Thanksgiving.
The first picture which reveals a noticeable swelling and redness on Branson's shoulder blade was taken by Jessica Carlisle just 15 minutes after he was bitten by the brown recluse.
The second photograph was taken just one hour later and reveals the bite has turned into a tender looking welt on the back of the Alberstville, Alabama, boy.
The third photograph was taken in hospital by Branson's mother nine hours after he was bitten and shows a rash and painful blotching of the skin.
Branson passed away suddenly from a cardiac arrest five hours later.
Jessica has made the difficult decision to release the images of her dead son in a bid to raise awareness among parents of the dangers of a brown recluse spider bite.
She wants them to know that the minute they suspect their child has been bitten to rush them to medical attention.
The distraught mother also wants her son's final wish to be granted - to give all his Christmas gifts away to children in Africa.
It was last Sunday that Branson was bitten at around 9am, wearing his new pajamas.
His mother then took him to the doctors office where he started showing symptons.
He told Jessica he had been and showed her the red mark on his shoulder blade.
'He said something had stung him,' said Jessica to AL.com. 'It was a brand new pajama top and this spider was in his shirt. I saw a welt on his back.'
