Ouch! I hope it doesn't end up swelling too badly or otherwise getting infected. I mention infection because, even if stings don't induce an allergic reaction, they can cause an infection. If your eyelid starts to feel warm to the touch, itchy or inflamed, I would check with your doctor. I ended up having to take an oral antibiotic for one of my bee stings.

Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

Owwww, I can't even imagine it. That must have been so frightening. I wish you well and a speedy recovery for your eye.

owie, bee stings hurt! Last time I got stung I literally felt sick to my stomach from the pain, I was quite shocked at how much it hurt.
