2/3 degree burns on hand

F'jord's hand got burnt on burn night at Burning Man 08. We were having a mad hatter tea party off the burn pile when the people who had the liberty head art car came up and shoved their way to the fire and and threw the liberty head onto the fire before anyone could move away. It went up like a sparkler bomb with this intense wave of heat that had everyone running, laying flat, ducking into their clothes to avoid the heat. My husband happened to be right by the fire reaching for our tea pot when they threw the head on the fire so the hand he was reaching towards the fire with got 3 degree radiation heat burns every where the skin was exposed to the heat. So if you know the people who had the liberty head art car thank them for us.

i am a 3 degree burn victim and got boiling water over me when i was 3 years old.

my top left leg is one big burn scar and watching this vid makes me shiver all over.

these burns may be healed but the pain is something you always will remember.
