A classmate of mine got stung by a scorpion two times on Sunday while she was putting bananas on the shelf at Pick N' Save!
She had an extremely severe allergic reaction and almost died in the ambulance on the way to the hospital. Her arm was so messed up from the reaction, the doctors started to talk to her and her parents about amputation.
What was even worse, is that the nearest scorpion expert was over 3 hours away- after all, why need that many in Wisconsin.
The scorpion was supposedly hiding in the bananas, and she didn't notice until it was too late- it stung her once. Then she freaked out and tried to fling it off, but it grabbed her with it's pinchers and stung her a second time. She shook her arm even harder and it flew off and ran away- they never found the scorpion.
She told me her parents are considering suing Pick N' Save and the Chiquita Company for this incident.
Today she was in my math class with the arm in a sling- you can see where she got stung. I just can't believe it- of all the places for that box to get shipped it came to Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin and of all the possible people to encounter it, it was my classmate! Too creepy!
I am so glad she is still her, if she died, the world would be short one awesome person! Crystal is amazing- I am just so happy to know she didn't die from here allergic reaction.

LOL! I meant to write bugs, but accidently typed spiders.
