Something a little closer to home. We lost my father in law last year, my Dad this year, our youngest has gone off the rails, our savings are shrinking, and I recently became a burn victim. But I’m trying…
Had to visit the burn unit yesterday, turns out burns keep getting worse for up to 72 hours. Hopefully scaring will be minimal.
I’m sorry to hear this, my friend! Here’s hoping the scarring won’t be too bad, as you said. Hope painkillers help with the pain a bit!
Thank you! I’ve broken down and taken a few ibuprofen. Takes the edge off enough.
The best part was when the RN and the burn unit asked me if I have any allergies. I said “I’m having a topical reaction to my InstaPot” and she replied “is it a burning sensation?”
Perfect comeback, no notes!
