Hot Chocolate Disaster






Sunday Morning in March: We were having breakfast and everyone wanted hot chocolate. Ryan was sitting next to Jared and HE grabbed Ryan's hot chocolate mug and spilled it. Spilling down the front down the left leg. I ran over, got him out of His seat pulled his PJ's off. Stomach had a small spot, thank heaven for his undershirt...His leg not so lucky. The skin was peeling off! We made a run for the ER.

2nd Degree Burns with a few smaller 3rd degree spots. Physical Therapy everyday: cleaning the burn and pulling off the dead skin. Then a trip to the Univ of Utah Burn Center, lots of supplies and pain medicine we were set...

He is doing great. Just makes you beware of quick hands!

The BOOT!





Don't try this at home, oh wait I did do this at home. Walking down the stairs to the basement and slipped and down I went. A nice clean break would have been the better way to go...But, no I had to damage the nerves in my foot, the Talus bone and stretched the Ligament's (Water around the Ligaments). It really Hurt! RX: Stay off my foot and rest...I have not been very good at that, it has taken a long time to heal. Too many things to do!(Mom stuff, if you know what I mean)Crutches and now a Rolling Walker! I know you can LAUGH! It was quite funny rolling into church!!!
