A TODDLER missing a kidney is fighting for his life after being stung more than 150 times by wasps in a nightmare accident.

Little Beckham Reed, two, was swarmed head-to-toe by yellow jackets after bumping into their nest while riding in a toy car with his cousins in Georgia.

His parents, Mariah and Peyton, raced him to hospital where he was given morphine and Benadryl before being sent home.

“They said his breathing was okay so they didn’t need to keep him,” family friend Tiffany Hewatt wrote on a GoFundMe set up to help with mounting medical bills.

But horror struck less than a day later when Beckham’s skin turned yellow.

He was rushed to another ER and diagnosed with multiple organ failure affecting his heart, liver and his only kidney.

“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,” said Hewatt, a registered nurse.

Beckham was admitted to the ICU at Memorial Savannah Hospital and hooked up to a ventilator, dialysis machine and pumped with life-saving IV meds.

“There is no antivenom for yellow jackets so all they can do is support his body while the toxins work their way out,” Hewatt explained.

On Wednesday, Beckham’s hemoglobin dropped to a dangerously low 6.8 — forcing doctors to give him more blood.

He’s also being tube-fed and was recently taken off blood pressure meds.

“We know the dialysis and sedating meds are causing the BP drop.

Baby mauled to death by family pitbull in horror dog attack at home

Beckham is waking up more and we know this is good news because he is STRONG and a great kicker,” Hewatt added.

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

The family is desperate to see if his only kidney will recover once he comes off dialysis.

Doctors hope that could happen as soon as tomorrow, though concerns remain the brave tot might yank out his lines.

“We are so ready for him to be off the vent and to hear his voice again,” Hewatt wrote.

The family’s GoFundMe has been launched to help cover soaring hospital costs.

It comes after an adorable seven-month-old baby girl was mauled to death by the family’s pitbull in a harrowing attack.

Little Elizah Turner was bitten by one of her family’s three pitbulls on inside their home in Columbus, Ohio.

The tot was rushed to a nearby fire station in May before being taken to Nationwide Children’s Hospital, where she was pronounced dead.

Cops said there were multiple dogs inside the home at the time of the horror, but it’s still unclear which one bit the infant.

Columbus Police Sgt. James Fuqua told local outlet WBNS the incident is being treated as a “tragic accident” and no charges are expected.
