[Desi Masala] penny for a bite
This information may be something to remember, as this season will soon be
here again...
It might be wise to carry a penny in your pocket while working in the
yard......... BEE STINGS!
A couple of weeks ago, I was stung by both a bee and hornet while working in
the garden.
My arm swelled up, so I went to the doctor. The clinic gave me cream and an
antihistamine. The next day the swelling was getting progressively worse, so
I went to my regular doctor. The arm was infected and needed an antibiotic.
The doctor told me - ' The next time you get stung, put a penny on the bite
for 15 minutes'.
That night, my niece was stung by two bees. I looked at the bite and it had
already started to swell. So, I taped a penny to her arm for 15 minutes. The
next morning, there was no sign of a bite. We decided that she just wasn't
allergic to the sting.
Soon, I was gardening outside. I got stung again, twice by a hornet on my
left hand. I thought, here I go again to the doctor for another antibiotic.
I promptly got my money out and taped two pennies to my bites, then sat and
sulked for 15 minutes. The penny took the string out of the bite
immediately.
In the meantime the hornets were attacking, and my friend was stung on the
thumb.
Again the penny. The next morning I could only see the spot where the hornet
had stung me. No redness, no swelling. My friend's sting was the same;
couldn't even tell where she had been stung.
She got stung* again* a few days later upon her back---cutting the grass!
And the penny worked once again.
Wanted to share this marvelous information in case you experience the same
problem.* We need to keep a stock of pennies on hand*.
The doctor said that the copper in the penny counteracts the bite. It
definitely works!
Please remember and pass this information on to your friends, children,
grandchildren, etc.

Wisdom is having a lot to say and not always saying it. Think before you
act; think twice before you speak.
An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind
Winners make things happen, losers let things happen.
I am too blessed to be stressed and too annointed to be disappointed.
Knowledge is information. Wisdom is knowing what to do with the information
you have.
