My tale takes place when I was a very young child. Oddly enough I can recall the event which happpened when I was only 3 years old, but I remember it like it was yesterday. I was at my uncle's college graduation party, and I was walking from the porch of the house to the back yard, there is a path of flag stone leading to the back, I recall being barefoot, as it was spring/summer time, when I felt a sudden sharp pain in my left foot. I started to cry, and caught everyone's attention, they realized that I apparantely didn't fall, but after searching over the ground where I stood, they found a bee without its stinger, so it was obvious, that it was in my foot, it was several minutes later when the situation got worse, my foot was swelling and I was passing in and out of conciousness. My meme who was an RN, told my mother to bring me to the hospital right away, because it was the first time that anybody knew that I was allergic to bee stings. According to my mother I kept slipping in and out during the car ride to the hospital 20 minutes away, I can distinctly remember my mother carrying my limp body into the hospital screaming for help, I was placed on a cart and wheeled into an ER, this is the point where I blacked out and then remembered hovering above the hospital and was accending upwards slowly, I also remember looking down and seeing a police car drive in with the lights and siren on, and I could hear them, as I could still hear with my body. I was brought back to life, but it was the oddest feeling just accending above the hospital, I felt very calm. I now live my life to the fullest becuase I realize just how easily it can be taken away, and I also welcome death and believe it is just a begining of another life.
