Author	Topic: Happy Penny Day Helps Bee Sting Victim!
Renee Ballenger	5/24/2012 11:46 AM While we were listening and learning, at the first meeting of the TFit Community Gardening Activity Group, along came a bee and stung Amy on her finger. When we all asked if she was OK, she exclaimed, “It hurts. Does anyone have a penny?” (Apparently copper helps neutralize the pain of the sting and venom.) Nate and Renee looked at each other in surprise and amusement, because earlier in the day, one of the student assistants in their office area was going around handing out shiny new pennies and wishing us all “Happy Penn Day!” Seriously! Nate just randomly slipped his in his pocket, and look what wonderful Good it served for one of his co-workers/co-gardeners. Great Wellness story! Love it!
