My daughter had an accident last night

[corvus1970]

My 15-year old daughter had a kitchen accident last night. She had boiled some eggs, and spilled the water on herself shortly after the heat was tuned off. She jerked her clothes off as fast as she could right after, and we got her into the tub and poured cold water over her for a while to cool down her skin and manage her pain

oh my god i bet your hearts were really pumping with adrenaline.

it's sad that in a country such as ours people have to worry about the cost of medical care.

glad to know she'll be coming home soon.

Boiling water is a HORROR. I did something similar when I was around her age, and I had a very large patch of my stomach scabbed over and oozy for about two weeks, so I can understand the kind of pain she's going through. Hopefully the burns heal quickly-- at her age, they probably will-- and she's back to normal soon. Give her my best!

Yipes! I'm glad she was okay in the long run.
