So I almost died a few days ago

Also, I think the Nurse just hated you and wanted you to die, the school wouldn't be stupid enough to hire an incompetent nurse. For that reason, don't sue the school, just solely focus on suing the Nurse, the Nurse severely wronged you and also was the only one to wrong you.

Uhm, what? No, that makes all amounts of no sense. People don't just want you dead like that for no reason, and also that nurse's career and life would be ruined if she was found responsible for a patient's death. That's not something a sane person would bring upon themselves on purpose. This is a very silly assumption to make.

Also, schools make stupid decisions all the time. These are the same people who decided that indifference would be the ideal way of dealing with a live beehive on their premises. If they don't care about that, assuming they also don't pay much attention to what their medical staff is doing is not much of a stretch from there.

Anyway, this is more likely to be a case of culpable negligence, not coldblooded murder (geez). Just keep focussing on both the school and the nurse. But remember to mention the nurse incident to your lawyer and all that. Especially the part where you explicitely informed the nurse of your allergy, and her dismissal of it. It sounds like an important part of the case.

a Seagull swooped and dropped a steaming pile of crap on me. Sufficive to say, I was not happy. I hunted down and broke that bird into a million pieces.
I really hope that story's fiction, because it is fucked up.

only part of it is true. I'm not heartless enough to kill a bird, and frankly it flew away before I could even gather myself and see where it went.
 
what a dense nurse

when a student is stung by a bee, and they tell you they're allergic to bee stings, you'd think she'd take note of that?

Glad to hear you're feeling better.

Any new insight on life you're near death experience has brought you?
Well now I'm a hell of a lot more careful when I'm near plants.
Also, I heard that the nurse who "treated“ me at school was actually a sub, not the full-time nurse. i wouldn't have known since that was my first time in the nurse's office.
 
I don't think I'm allergic to bees, but there's no way I'm letting myself ever get stung by one by chance I am and I just didn't know.

Glad you're feeling better, hope you reap the rewards from suing that substitute nurse (and the school).
 
Coincidentally, I just got stung by a bee today for the first time in years. Right on the thumb, too (it was stuck in one of the bird nets at the research station I volunteer at and my fingers slipped as I was trying to untangle it). Hurt like hell, but all I could think of was this thread and how glad I am that I'm not allergic... 'Twas a sobering moment.
 
I'm less inclined to believe my initial theory of a rude nurse now that I heard the Nurse was a subsitute and therefore must have been incompetent.

IIRC, you're not allergic to bees unless you've been stung before. I may (probably?) be incorrect, however.
 
That's....just terrible. I feel really bad for you.
