On February 17th, our Ward had an Adult Party at the 5 Star Peabody Hotel. (Before you freak out, they asked each of us to contribute money toward's this activity and a guy in our ward work's there and got us a good deal, so we don't have some extravegant budget like you might think.) Anyway, as I was getting ready in my bathroom, Sidnie came and plopped herself down on the little rug in front of the sink. She bumped the cord to the curling iron and it came down on top of her. Besides bonking her head, it was HOT. It hit her check and rolled down her face. Her eyes got real BIG in pain as she realized how hot it was. I grabbed it as fast as I could, but some damage had already been done. She cried and cried and had some nice burns on her face. Poor Thing!
Day One (the 17th)...
You can't see it as well as in person, but there is a burn mark up on her check bone and then there are some flat blisters farther down where the curling iron finally came to rest on her check, neck and ear.
Day Two (18th)...
Beginning to scab...
Day Four (20th)...
The blister began to get scraped off in her sleep or somehow and nice scabs formed.
Day Nine (25th)...
The scabs are starting to fall off.
Two weeks later (March 2nd)...
Amazing how the body/skin can heal. It's still pink in the burned areas, but it is doing nicely. :)
