Hello,
My 2 year old son was stung by one single fire ant on Thursday and went into
anaphlactic response. I rushed him to the ER where he received treatment and
epi pens, but I am still so shaken and scared. I have spent the last few days
crying and terrified of the future. Fire Ants are plentiful where we live and
the idea of him spending the rest of his life indoors is insane and irrational.
But the image of his limp body is haunting me and something I'm sure I will
never forget.

R
