The Sting of a Scorpion

Patrick Kearon

What happened was that Patrick did not listen to what his parents told him to always wear shoes and thought to himself that sandals were going to protect him from anything. He said that they would protect him so he keep the sandals on and didn't put shoes on. He walked a little down from his camp site and then he felt like a torn stabbed him. But when he looked down he saw a scorpion and the pain started traveling up his leg to his knee. He started screaming for his mom and they rushed to take him to the nearest hospital which is 2 hours away. When the doctor came he just put a amethysts in the leg and was better but if was not nourished he would have had more difficulty with staying alive. So now he learned his lesson on paying attention to both his parents and choosing the right.
