US EditionToddler Fighting for Life After Being Stung 150 Times by Wasps
- Two-Year-Old Beckham Reed was stung more than 150 times by yellow jackets after hitting their nest while riding a toy car in Georgia.
- Beckham's initial hospital visit resulted in morphine and Benadryl treatment and release, but less than 24 hours later he turned yellow and was rushed back due to multi-organ failure.
- Doctors determined Beckham was experiencing failure of his kidney, liver, and heart, leading to his admission to an intensive care unit where he received kidney cleansing treatments, breathing assistance through a ventilator, and urgent intravenous drugs to counteract the toxins.
- A GoFundMe page raised over $53,500, stating Beckham's body could not handle the toxin load, there is no antivenom, and that his condition is slowly improving with prayers and support.
- Beckham's gradual recovery implies prolonged medical care needs, and his parents remain unable to work while caring for him and awaiting further health improvements.
