An 85-year-old man who was stung 500 times in a bee attack last week has been discharged from the hospital, a hospital spokeswoman said Thursday.


Willard Duncan, who was hospitalized in critical condition at University Medical Center Brackenridge eight days ago on August 11, has now begun a full-time, two-week rehabilitation program, said Verda Duncan, 79.

“He still has some swelling,” Verda Duncan said. But “he’s getting better. He’s getting back pretty good.”

The Duncan family —- which includes the Duncan’s 11 children (ranging in ages from 38 to 60), 32 grandchildren and 23 great-grandchildren —- has been paying closer watch of Willard Duncan since the attack.
