[Magdalen] Hornets

[James Oppenheimer-Crawford]

That happened to me when I was young.  Hurts a lot, but unless you have an
allergy, no real problem.  I hope they iced it. That helps. I'm certainly
very sorry yours got stung, sorry for the anxiety I'm sure it caused, and
let's hope and pray that no such allergies do appear. I understand that
such an event is often what precipitates the sensitivity.
