Reads like a good contender for the contest to me. Way to go. Those stings are very painful, and long lasting. They can be deadly for some people. Thanks for the visit to my page with get well wishes. Sara

Thank god, it's just for the contest, but I remember it had happened to me when I was a kid.

Oh, please let this be fiction based on a picture you found...and not your experience! That looks so painful!

Thanks for your concern, my friend Milton; this is just fictional for the contest.
