CAN’T BEE-LIEVE IT I had to SUCK OUT 40 bee stings from my toddler’s skin after he was attacked by huge swarm – it was like a horror film
A HORRIFIED mum was forced to suck out 40 bee stings from her toddler's skin after he was attacked by a huge swarm - reminiscent of a horror film.
Jo Evans was at her local rugby club with friends and family when her four-year-old son, Brody-Jac, was suddenly swarmed by a colony of honey bees.
She feared her son might suffer the same fate as Macaulay Culkin's character in the 90s film, My Girl, after he was engulfed by a swarm of bees, prompting her to suck out 40 stings to save him.
The 39-year-old social worker from Swansea was sitting with friends at the side of the pitch, "a stone's throw away" from where her two children and other kids were playing on a bank in September.
Unbeknownst to her, the children had accidentally disturbed a honey bee hive while throwing stones into a stream - aggravating the winged insects.
The mum-of-two was horrified when she heard her eight-year-old son Blake screaming and turned to see a swarm of 50 bees surrounding her youngest, Brody-Jac.
Jo's husband - 36-year-old social worker Jason Evans - sprinted over to rescue little Brody-Jac, suffering several bee stings himself.
The terrified mum then began sucking out the bee stings from her tot's body after he was stung dozens of times across his arms, back and head.
Fearing their son could go into anaphylactic shock at any moment, the parents rushed Brody-Jac to hospital where luckily he made a full recovery.
Jo said: "The kids were throwing stones at a stream and obviously unknowingly aggravated this hive. They didn't know it was there.
