What started as a playful afternoon turned into a nightmare. Two-year-old Beckham Reed, who only has one kidney, was swarmed by wasps after accidentally disturbing a nest while riding a toy car with his cousins in Georgia. Within seconds, he was stung over 150 times. His tiny body couldn’t handle the venom. Family members rushed to help, and emergency crews got him to the hospital. Now, he’s fighting to stay alive. His story has touched hearts across the country—because no child should ever face something like this.

A two-year-old boy who is missing a kidney was stung 150 times by wasps and is now fighting for his life in a Georgia hospital.

Beckham Reed was playing with his cousins on an electric toy when he hit a nest of yellow jackets, which ‘swarmed him head to toe,’ a GoFundMe revealed.

His parents Mariah and Peyton rushed the little Beckham to the hospital, where he was given morphine and Benadryl and sent home.

‘They said his breathing was okay so they didn’t need to keep him,’ GoFundMe organizer Tiffany Hewatt wrote on the fundraising page.

Not even a day later, Beckham was rushed to a different ER after he turned yellow and was diagnosed with multiple organ failure, which affected his heart, liver, and remaining kidney.

He was admitted to the ICU at Memorial Savannah Hospital and treated with dialysis, a ventilator, and IV medications to flush out the toxins from the stings.

‘Due to his age and size and the amount of stings he had, his little body was unable to handle the amount of toxins in his body,’ Hewatt said.

On Wednesday, the little boy’s hemoglobin tested at 6.8, which is significantly low and can be life-threatening. He received more blood, which the family expected after he underwent dialysis.

Hemoglobin transports oxygen in the blood from the lungs to the rest of the body and carries carbon dioxide back to the lungs to be exhaled.

Beckham is also being fed via a tube and was recently taken off blood pressure medication.

‘We know the dialysis and sedating meds are causing the BP drop. Beckham is waking up more and we know this is good news because he is STRONG and a great kicker,’ she said.

‘However, we don’t want him pulling the vent or other lines so they have to keep adjusting his sedating meds.’

Beckham has been slowly improving, but doctors are still trying to get him regulated and he continues to stay on the ventilator.

The family is worried his only working kidney won’t work, but they won’t find out if it will until he comes off dialysis. Beckham is showing signs of infection.

Beckham could come off dialysis as early as tomorrow, Hewatt said, but doctors are currently holding off due to worries the two-year-old will pull on his dialysis line.

The family started the GoFundMe to help with medical bills.
