A man in Ohio woke up from a coma after being stung a few 20,000 times by bees.
Austin Bellamy, 20 years old, is expected to continue his recovery after being attacked by insects last Friday when he accidentally cut into a nest of African bees killers while helping a friend cut down branches from a lemon tree.
Her mother, Shawna Carter, started a GoFundMe fundraising campaign to pay for medical treatment.
Until this Thursday morning, the account exceeded $10,000 dollars in donations.
Last night, the patient woke up from an induced coma at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, local media reported.
Bellamy’s mother told PEOPLE that she almost died when she found out about her son’s health status.
“It seemed as if he had a black blanket on his head to the neck. him and even the arms of him, ”she added. The young man even ingested some 30 bees in the middle of the attack that had to remove his organism. This caused kidney failure.
Incidentally, he thanked the firefighter who rescued his son. “When I think of Craig, Craig is a lifesaver,” he added. “He is the angel of Austin,” she pointed out.
