Gosh Steph, Buddy really is a keeper, not many men would go out there and deal with those bees, just so you can have your bees. I know he's nervous after the scare for you to let you near them, eventually he may get comfortable again for you to work with the bees. Yes bees are everywhere so just make sure you keep the epi pen with you at all times and wear you new suit from this point forward. I'm proud of you Steph.
From personal experiences, not with bees, but real fear and anxiety🥰The Word of God, Jesus, Truth sets you free🩸My verse is fear is not of God, and for Thou did not give me a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind, also, His strength is made perfect in my weakness🥰I had fear that paralyzed of the dark, and He set me free🥰
I love PawPaw's calm demeanor around the 🐝 bees! It's good to face your strength when you are ready. You wear dark clothing so I hope the bees don't remember. You had a angry houseful of bees. Glad you are resolving to get a happy bee house. We need to name your honey after your name! You earned it🎉
Steph, You are one brave woman. Thank you Buddy and PawPaw for helping with the bee hive. I'm glad the outcome was a positive one. ❤ Hope all have a wonderful day 🌻🌷🌞🌹
Stephanie you are a true warrior. I'm so proud of you not to quit what you love. 💓 I can't even imagine that day going to hospital. Not being able to breath or see is horrifying. I'm so happy you are feeling better. I know if I had your passion I'd be the same. I can't explain into words how proud I am of you, for having that courage. ❤ I'm proud of Buddy and Pops also. After or experience only a day or two you are right out there again without fear. I praise God for keeping you safe . 🙏 You all did an Incredible job and I am proud of you all. Long live queen Steph.
Buddy, you are spot on in encouraging and supporting Steph, while implementing safety measures first. You are an exceptional husband. She will overcome this in time. Your patience and letting her get through this at her own pace speak volumes of your character. Love you all!! 🙏❤💪
So proud of you Steph!! It’s hard to over come something that almost killed you, your very strong and brave !Bless your sweet heart!! I’m proud of buddy too for trying his best to help you
I'm glad you didn't want to give up bee keeping. I think you would have regretted it. You're a brave woman to continue this mission and I'm sure you will be successful.
You're awesome Stephanie for facing your fears. I don't blame you for sticking with the bees if it's a passion of yours. We need bees for the environment. As long as you have that thick suit. I can't blame you for being nervous after what you went through. Stay safe.
Very good Steph. You got this! Especially with the new suit and queen. You're so used to working with the Hives that's why you found her. I'm so proud of you for not giving up. Keep on being the Queen Bee Keeper that you are. Peace from WV
STEPH, I AM SO PROUD OF YOU FOR NOT GIVING UP OR GIVING IN. YOU DO WHAT YOU FEEL THE NEED TO DO. ITS GOOD TO KEEP BEES IF YOU CAN. IT PRESERVES THEM. THANK YOU.
Y’all are the sweetest couple always thinking of others, especially Pop. Your parents have done a terrific job of raising you two!! Love watching your videos!!
I am so proud of you all! Stephanie, you are amazing to face your PTSD head on and refusing to let it take over. Buddy, what can I say? A woman could not ask for a more supportive and caring partner! Much respect to you. ❤ And great job to Pops for also bringing his expertise and willingness to help! This was truly a heartwarming video. Thank you for sharing and thank you for your part in saving the bee population! Stay safe and blessed all! ❤🙏❤
I agree with buddy. Keep doing what you love just do it safely. Steph is right she can't live her life in fear, bees are everywhere. I love your courage.
So proud of you, Stephanie, for facing your fears. Proud of Buddy & Gene (Paw Paw) for immediately getting out there to get the situation under control ( fingers crossed 🤞)I pray the new queen gets the hive tamer. Great job finding that agressive queen Stephanie. Still praying your PTSD gets less and less. God Bless you all. 🙏
Wow, Steph! I’m proud of you for sharing such a vulnerable moment with us. Your courage is commendable. Traumatic events are processed differently by each person. This is YOUR journey and I’m sure your decision is right for you. You need to order a Wonder Woman outfit. You’ve earned it!
I’m so proud of you. You need to be aware of them but hopefully you can lessen your anxiety of the 🐝. You and Buddy make me laugh. You’re so sweet together
It’s OK to conquer your fears, but you need to use some caution considering that what happened could’ve easily taken your life conquering your fears is OK just please be safe❤
Good morning Stephanie and Buddy Stephanie I'm very proud of you that you did not give up after that horrific day with the bees I am glad that Buddy and Papaw were able to help you get the queen now hopefully with a new queen The beehive will calm down and not be so hostile Great video catch you on the next one enjoy the rest of your Monday❤❤
AWESOME that THE Queen found that mean little queen!!! Stephanie.....God bless and protect you from any angry bees now and for the rest of your days!!! Buddy and PawPaw are professional Beekeepers. You 3 , what a team!!!!
The only two times I was stung by bees was when I was trying to rescue them from swimming pools, then I put a ladder in my garden to get a badminton birdie off of the roof, and I sunk into a nest of ground bees. They swarmed me and I got stung about a half a dozen times. Since then I’m just like you totally allergic to bees and for a long time I did freak out but I’m much better now. You are a warrior! You will conquer this!
I cannot even begin to imagine the anxiety running through you having to go near that hive again. I’m scared of wasps and hornets and even bees freak me out if they come at me from behind. I’m in total awe at you facing down your fears Steph and for the support that Buddy is giving you so you don’t have to lose another passion of yours. It’s so sad to hear of your trauma as a young girl with the horse, that must have been awful for you to be so scared afterwards that you couldn’t continue to ride 🤗
Congratulations! Not only did you find the queen but it was actually YOU who found her! I'm so glad you got the hives sorted and re-queened and I hope that she can turn that aggressive hive around. Keep us posted on how it progresses! Thanks to Buddy & PawPaw for their help.
The more I have seen and learned, the more questions I have! Steph, I think how you are handling your trauma is 100% correct. You are not a quitter. And you are blessed to have an awesome support system. I hope the new Queen calms the hive down. So glad you all have the new suits!
I find your bee videos so interesting. Not that I would ever want to try my hand at beekeeping. Nope. That AIN'T gonna happen, E-V-E-R. But it is so interesting to watch and learn about them. I am glad that you are okay Steph, after that horrific incident. Thank you to you and Buddy for taking the time to make and share your videos with us. 💜🐾🐾💜
I’m so interested in learning more about bees because of you. You are so brave to go back out there and face your fears after that horrible experience. I hope when you start harvesting the honey, that you will do a video on it. I’m so curious to see how everything works and I have learned so much about bees from you. Please keep updating us on how the hive is going and BE SAFE OUT THERE! ❤❤❤❤
“Ding Dong, the Witch is Dead ! The Wicked Witch is Dead” !! 🐝 Let’s call the new Queen “Dorothy” 😊 So proud of all three of you “bee warriors”. Great job ! Hang in there Steph, you’ve got this !!
Steph - I admire how strong and courageous you are. It would be so easy to just say heck with it and burn down the hive. So nice to see the support from both Buddy and PawPaw to help with this bee crisis. My fingers are crossed that the new queen will get this hive under control for you. When Buddy came back with the news that the old queen was no more - all I could think of was the Wizard of OZ song - the Wicked Witch is dead. LOL Thanks for sharing all that you do - I really have enjoyed and learned from your videos.
Glad to see you carrying the EPI pens in your purse everywhere. Always take the pens in the store in your purse as long exposure to heat can damage the efficacy of the pens. That doctor telling you to keep them in your car I just am so glad you had other people who could advise you not to do that but to keep them with you. You can use the practice pen. I suggest again that you teach each of your children how easy it is to inject you as Buddy is not always around.
You definitely are one strong woman Steph, facing those bees again. And yay for capturing the bad queen, hopefully your new one will gentle the hive. Way to go! ❤🐝🐝
Yes Steph! ❤ Work thru the fear and keep your hives, especially now that you’re even more preprepared as a bee keeper. You’re making all the right moves 😊 ❤😊
Steph it is okay , working threw all your emotions even if it's baby steps you conquered step one ✅ getting out of the car while they are flying around outside, im very proud of you Steph , i do feel that would be best just get back in there 💕 eventually you'll be back working around them without fear in your garden and the hive.. baby steps .. glad pops is helping you guys with the aggressive hive 👑 if you gotta let that box go let it go set it on fire 🔥..
Stephanie you are a strong courageous woman, I understand Buddy's concern. An anaphylactic shock is not nothing, of course. Buddy wants to protect you lovingly. You are really a wonderful sweet couple. ❣❤❣🐝
This bee saga is a great learning lesson for everyone. I found it interesting when PawPaw explained what the State of Texas is doing to eradicate Africanized bees. Glad everyone is safe now.
Wear a bee suit sweetie! It is your best bet and wear the new one. Please. Safety first always. You got this! And have PAWPAW in the area for confidence!
Steph you are doing great and it is ok to be anxious but you are facing your fear and with time you will be fine. You are in control and so glad you have your pens. Keep doing what you love and you are OK
You don't seem like the kind of woman who gives up Stephanie So I'm glad your not going to. Also having those badass 🐝 suits is very smart you never know when you might need them . 🐝 happy! Oh No a buddy joke 🤣 love your videos you guys
That reaction was both PTSD and self preservation. And after anaphylaxis you are supposed to rest for a number of days to let your body reset back to normal! I wish you the best. It is not babying!!!
Steph don't give up cause people don't understand what is going on we have to make food like growing ,bees for honey,canning,sometime a bad thing could come out to be a good thing just do what you want to do but be safe while doing so
Steph if you haven't already done this I would do it before you go anywhere near your beehives again is just to make sure all the bee scent is off of you. The best way to do that is to wash your hair and all the clothes you were wearing in Dawn dish soap Original Scent to remove all the oily bee scent. Dawn dish soap is a great way to get any oily substance off you and your clothes. By them smelling that scent on you still that can set them off again. I use Dawn dish soap Original Scent any time I come in contact with something I am sensitive to. It takes it off my skin and stops any further reaction from happening. I get a red rash from anyting artificially scented or dyed. I react with in 10 minutes of contact with a red itchy rash that also looks like a chemical burn. For some odd reason I do not react to Dawn dish soap Original Scent so that is what I use when dealing with a reaction on my skin.
I was thrown off a horse and he stepped on me. I had my own horse and could ride him, but now I can't ride one. I can't trust another horse. Plus was attacked by a dalmatian. Luckily my parents loved St. Bernards. So that helped my fear of dogs. I am scared to death of Dalmatians, but any other dog I am not. Unless they growl, then the fear sets in. So I know what you are going through.
Steph and Buddy, I love your spirit, you make smart, well thought through decisions based on the facts. If there is ever a zombie apocalypse, I hope you two are in charge of saving the rest of us! 🤣
Thank you Buddy and Stephanie for sharing yourself to us. I really enjoy your channel you both bring plenty of education regarding your home life especially the Bee Farm. The Queen is dead, off with the head! The Bee suits Pop and Buddy are wearing look more breathable especially around the head gear, better air flow. Gosh I’m happy for you guys ❤ God Bless and remember: Love is stronger than fear.
You are so brave, Steph! Just make sure that someone is around when you are working with the bees and be extra careful when doing yard work from now on! I am in your corner!!
Ohhh girlfriend...I felt your anxiety at that Bee store, and I know you said it's better to do it with a friend, but I'm sorry, I stayed in the truck! 🤣 I gotta say, you are impressively courageous and I ABSOLUTELY LOVED the thumbnail with your smiling face and the caption...Girl, bye! Love y'all, mean it!
Stephanie I definitely understand why you want to continue taking care of bees and I also understand why you want to not wait. However please just keep yourself safe as can be and have fun
You are brave and I’m so happy you shared your story of this incident with us. Why would anyone in their right mind tell you to quit? Glad you all including PawPaw got a bee suit upgrade. Take care and continue being you❣️🌿🍆🫛🫑
I am so happy that at the end this worked out. Now Stephanie you just go get you therapy and get your immune system back up and everything will be back to normal 😅😅 I have to say, Stephanie you did so very good and I am so very proud of you 😊❤
I was in my late 20s when I experienced anaphylaxis - it was the late 1970s. Over 40yrs later I continue to experience anxiety when I hear the buzzing of flying insects. Without proper treatment death can and sadly does occur. It is a valid concern. I admire Steph's determination to not allow her love for bee‐keeping to be denied. Please monitor the expiration date on your epipens. They last a long time but as the expiration date approaches be sure you order the replacements. A former coworker laughed at me when I reminded him to verify his pens were not expired. He was found under a tree in a field, beside his tractor. He used his epipens but they were expired years earlier. The value of the injections were neutralized over time. He was 28 and an expectant Dad-to-be. Sadly his wife not only lost her husband but also the baby.
Proud of you for being courageous, Steph. We’re all rooting for you ❤
Gosh Steph, Buddy really is a keeper, not many men would go out there and deal with those bees, just so you can have your bees.

Bravo our brave bee keeper and helpers.
The amazing relationship and love you and Buddy have a such a breath of fresh air ❤
Everyone deals with PTSD differently, you know your own body, do what feels right for you, give yourself time to process and heal. Much love 💕.
Buddy, you are spot on in encouraging and supporting Steph, while implementing safety measures first. You are an exceptional husband. She will overcome this in time. Your patience and letting her get through this at her own pace speak volumes of your character. Love you all!! 🙏❤💪
So proud of you Steph!! It’s hard to over come something that almost killed you, your very strong and brave !Bless your sweet heart!! I’m proud of buddy too for trying his best to help you

You did the right thing I made the mistake and didn’t replace my queen and almost lost my grandson and myself from it ..
Good one Stephanie. You are the Queen 🐝💕. You even have the bee tat. Lol
Stephanie, Buddy and Paw Paw Great job in working together! You are all awesome! ❤
I’m pleased your still with us 💜🇦🇺💜🇦🇺💜

Remember Stephanie even after using the epi-pens you still need to go to the hospital. My aunt is deathly allergic to anything that stings.
You definitely are one strong woman Steph, facing those bees again. And yay for capturing the bad queen, hopefully your new one will gentle the hive. Way to go! ❤🐝🐝
Yes Steph! ❤ Work thru the fear and keep your hives, especially now that you’re even more preprepared as a bee keeper. You’re making all the right moves 😊 ❤😊

steps .. glad pops is helping you guys with the aggressive hive 👑 if you gotta let that box go let it go set it on fire 🔥..
Stephanie you are a strong courageous woman, I understand Buddy's concern. An anaphylactic shock is not nothing, of course. Buddy wants to protect you lovingly. You are really a wonderful sweet couple. ❣❤❣🐝
This bee saga is a great learning lesson for everyone. I found it interesting when PawPaw explained what the State of Texas is doing to eradicate Africanized bees. Glad everyone is safe now.
Proud of you Steph! And you are correct-Buddy has already found his queen!☺️❤️
What a proud moment for you. You, "Got back on the Horse", and, found the aggressive Queen!
By the way, a medical emergency bracelet or necklace might be necessary! My cousin is allergic to bees and wears one, just in case!!
Wear a bee suit sweetie! It is your best bet and wear the new one. Please. Safety first always. You got this! And have PAWPAW in the area for confidence!
Steph you are doing great and it is ok to be anxious but you are facing your fear and with time you will be fine. You are in control and so glad you have your pens. Keep doing what you love and you are OK
You don't seem like the kind of woman who gives up Stephanie So I'm glad your not going to. Also having those badass 🐝 suits is very smart you never know when you might need them . 🐝 happy! Oh No a buddy joke 🤣 love your videos you guys
That reaction was both PTSD and self preservation. And after anaphylaxis you are supposed to rest for a number of days to let your body reset back to normal! I wish you the best. It is not babying!!!
Steph try if you want to. You know what's best for you. ❤
Prayers 🙏 💖, love, and 🫂 hugs. ❤ 🫶 💞 🐝
So proud of you all for trying to save the hive I pray the new queen does the trick and all will Bee Well❤️🙏🐝
Steph don't give up cause people don't understand what is going on we have to make food like growing ,bees for honey,canning,sometime a bad thing could come out to be a good thing just do what you want to do but be safe while doing so
After all that , you could not pay me enough to play with the Bees again
Steph if you haven't already done this I would do it before you go anywhere near your beehives again is just to make sure all the bee scent is off of you. The best way to do that is to wash your hair and all the clothes you were wearing in Dawn dish soap Original Scent to remove all the oily bee scent. Dawn dish soap is a great way to get any oily substance off you and your clothes. By them smelling that scent on you still that can set them off again.
I use Dawn dish soap Original Scent any time I come in contact with something I am sensitive to. It takes it off my skin and stops any further reaction from happening. I get a red rash from anyting artificially scented or dyed. I react with in 10 minutes of contact with a red itchy rash that also looks like a chemical burn. For some odd reason I do not react to Dawn dish soap Original Scent so that is what I use when dealing with a reaction on my skin.
Thankfully you got rid of the queen. Don't be hard on yourself Steph and take the time you need to allow your body AND mind to heal.
Don’t give up EVER! Just be prepared. Be protected
Sounds like you have a good plan. Good job getting into the bee store. Stay strong sweetie. 😊
I was thrown off a horse and he stepped on me. I had my own horse and could ride him, but now I can't ride one. I can't trust another horse. Plus was attacked by a dalmatian. Luckily my parents loved St. Bernards. So that helped my fear of dogs. I am scared to death of Dalmatians, but any other dog I am not. Unless they growl, then the fear sets in. So I know what you are going through.
Steph and Buddy, I love your spirit, you make smart, well thought through decisions based on the facts. If there is ever a zombie apocalypse, I hope you two are in charge of saving the rest of us! 🤣
🤣
So glad you found the queen. Take care❤
Thank you Buddy and Stephanie for sharing yourself to us. I really enjoy your channel you both bring plenty of education regarding your home life especially the Bee Farm. The Queen is dead, off with the head!
The Bee suits Pop and Buddy are wearing look more breathable especially around the head gear, better air flow.
Gosh I’m happy for you guys ❤ God Bless and remember: Love is stronger than fear.
You are right Steph about not letting it get the best of you and getting back out there in a safe way, keep up the good work.
You are so brave, Steph! Just make sure that someone is around when you are working with the bees and be extra careful when doing yard work from now on! I am in your corner!!
I’m learning a lot about beekeeping now.
Stephanie lm glad you are doing so much better. God Bless and l love yall 💕💕💕
Ohhh girlfriend...I felt your anxiety at that Bee store, and I know you said it's better to do it with a friend, but I'm sorry, I stayed in the truck! 🤣
I gotta say, you are impressively courageous and I ABSOLUTELY LOVED the thumbnail with your smiling face and the caption...Girl, bye! Love y'all, mean it!
Stephanie carry an eppi pen in your back pocket at all times
Be safe you should ask paw paw for help
Quite an undertaking. And some how you pushed through your fear and anxiety Steph. I’m glad everyone is ok. Be well ❤
I am so glad you all 3 now have a better Bee hive suits and you feel safe in it and you are facing your fears 💗
Stephanie I definitely understand why you want to continue taking care of bees and I also understand why you want to not wait. However please just keep yourself safe as can be and have fun
I am proud of you Stephanie.
You are brave and I’m so happy you shared your story of this incident with us. Why would anyone in their right mind tell you to quit? Glad you all including PawPaw got a bee suit upgrade. Take care and continue being you❣️🌿🍆🫛🫑
I am so happy that at the end this worked out. Now Stephanie you just go get you therapy and get your immune system back up and everything will be back to normal 😅😅
I have to say, Stephanie you did so very good and I am so very proud of you 😊❤
I was in my late 20s when I experienced anaphylaxis - it was the late 1970s. Over 40yrs later I continue to experience anxiety when I hear the buzzing of flying insects. Without proper treatment death can and sadly does occur. It is a valid concern. I admire Steph's determination to not allow her love for bee‐keeping to be denied. Please monitor the expiration date on your epipens. They last a long time but as the expiration date approaches be sure you order the replacements. A former coworker laughed at me when I reminded him to verify his pens were not expired. He was found under a tree in a field, beside his tractor. He used his epipens but they were expired years earlier. The value of the injections were neutralized over time. He was 28 and an expectant Dad-to-be. Sadly his wife not only lost her husband but also the baby.
What a sad story.
Glad your better now. Thank God. You are blessed. 🙏🌻❤️🌻
Woot Woot! Way to go Steph! Ding Dong the queen bee is dead.. Steph, Buddy and PawPaw.. the fabulous 3!! 😊
I’m glad you got pops a suit. I worry that being older would have a different reaction to stings than when he was Buddy’s age.
I worry about him "running away" I literally sprinted as fast as I could and got popped so many times. He can't run so he needs all the protection ❤️
You are teaching others to face their fears and with education and time and family that loves and supports you anything is possible! 🎉🎉🎉
It took a lot of guts to get out of that car. Thanks for sharing.
Yessss Steph you can be proud of yourself. We all are proud and happy for you 😃
BUDDY ,you're one of a kind..Such a beautiful husband..Steph is blessed to have you and each other..❤
Ding Dong The Queen is dead!.....I mean caught. Good job, Pawpaw, Buddy and Steph!
