How stupid can you get? A cautionary tale ..

Oh, you poor thing! I hope you heal quickly and it wasn't too traumatising.

Hope you get better soon!

Yes I learnt my lesson a few months ago with our gas hob when the 'spark thing' wasn't clicking. Stupid me just kept trying, gas pouring out etc. Then there was a WHOOMP as it finally caught. I jumped back really quickly (thank God) but stood there really shocked for a few seconds!

Thanks all, for the good wishes. A bit more mobile today at last, and the dressing was changed this morning for a much smaller one so the burnt area seems to be receding nicely!

I have to say it was very scary at the time, seeing flames dancing around on my chest and hair wasn't the best experience I've had, but luckily it wasnt as bad as it could have been.

Lainey - thanks for the tip, I'll try some vit e cream when I can touch the area!
Tony - now that I'm off the morphine I'm definitely on the spirit to sooth ruffled feathers haha!

Oh heck! Glad to hear you survived the incident and I hope there isn't any scarring - nurses can be wrong you know! Take care chuck.

Don't tell my husband that, I'm NEVER wrong!!!!!
