Air-clinic contest 18: My Near-Death Experience-- The bee sting

in #stat7 years ago (edited)

Six years ago, my family travelled to the village to spend the holiday. Life in the village was easy, it was easy getting whatever we wanted to eat and as much as we wanted which had to involve fruits,palm wine and bush meat.

One day, my friends who saw a honey comb invited me to go join them extra the honey,I had little knowledge on how it was done and that gave me zeal to learn something new. All I know about extracting honey then was that it involves smoking ,I tried to learn more from them but all they told me was that it was an easy process.
Night came and we were set to go for the honey hunt, I was told to rub ashes all over my body,wear gloves ,cover my eyes and every part of my body.

The process started well not until a bee hive containing a swamp of bee fell on my exposed head,I couldn't imagine or count the number of stings I received ,they stung me all over my head down to my neck. At stat I began to feel dizzy and my body hurt , I couldn't see clearly and was swollen all over my body ,I wanted to shout but my lips couldn't carry it from how swollen it was .

I started to run without knowing exactly where I was going to,I can't remember what happened next ,I think I passed out ,it was already 12 hours when I was stung by the swamp of bee but it seemed like eternity. I could see people staring at me without understanding why. feeling lifeless already,what I thought of next was making confession of my sins.

Feeling regret on my sick bed I could hear people murmuring on how I was lucky to have survived the attack ,there and then I made a promise to myself never to get involve with bee if I survive. In fact I got a phobia for bee. I was finally back on my feet after three weeks on a sick bed which was exactly when the holiday ended. That incident ruined the rest of my holiday.
