Our First Bee Sting

The evening of Brayden's birthday party, after almost everyone had left, Brayden was laying across the threshold of our front door. I could see him from where I was sitting so I let him play where he was. All of a sudden he starting crying and holding out his finger. As soon as I saw the bee on the door mat I realized that he had been stung. Uncle Bobby came to his rescue and pulled out the stinger, which according to Bobby wasn't in very far. After about 10 minutes of crying he seemed to be fine. The next night Ben and I noticed that his whole finger was swollen and red. I decided to give him some Benadryl and if it hadn't gone down by the morning I would call the doctor's office.
That next morning it only seemed to get worse. The redness was spreading and the whole top of his hand was now swollen. We went in to see the doctor that day when told me the swelling and redness is normal after a bee sting. The hand should starting looking better after a day or two but to continue to give him Benadryl. He was right, it has been four days since the incident and his hand looks much better.
