A wonderful thing happened to me yesterday. I got stung by a honey bee! Why is being stung by a bee a such wonderful thing? Because I didn't have any kind of reaction to it whatsoever. Apparently I'm not as allergic to their stings as I feared. After being rushed to the hospital over the summer with a severe allergic reaction to multiple stings now I'm finding that I just might be okay taking a single sting once in a while. That really makes me feel better about working in my hives.

Sounds as though your immune system has decided to put up a defence against bee stings. That's good news.

I am glad things are working out for you with the stings. My husband was really sick years ago and had a terrible reaction, luckily he hasn't been stung since.
