Burn Update

I was burned by bacon two weeks ago today.  And let me just say that the human body is amazing!  The burn looks really great.  Go my body plus modern medicine!

You don't have to scroll down for the photo because I don't think it looks bad anymore.  I actually think it looks really great!

Some explanation is necessary here.  The purple-y portion in the center is my burn.  So is the brown-ish area above the purple-y area.  The red area to the side is a rash.  Boo. :(   It's interesting that the rash stops right at the edge of the new skin from my healing burn.  Both the rash and the burn are getting better.  

I actually really enjoyed changing my bandage every 12 hours because the burn looked better literally every time I looked at it.  The body moves fast!  And modern medicine helps it move even faster!

The burn maintenance has been pretty low key.  It does take me longer to get ready in the morning (You know with the keeping one leg from getting wet in the shower and all.  Oh, and the cleaning and re-bandaging morning and night, too) but that's about it.  The burn was doing well enough by Saturday that I bandaged it special and went to Raging Waters with T's family and everything was totally fine!  Tons more about our extra long Utah vacation coming soon...
