Ouch.

Today I burned my arm. William turned the rototiller on for just a few seconds to move it to his truck and then I bent down to help him lift it and laid my arm on the burning hot exhaust. I had no clue it would even be hot at all after being on for such a short time. I jerked my arm away, thinking I had been bit or stung by something but looked at my arm and saw melted flesh. Ew. To my surprise, it hasn't really hurt too badly. I have kept it smothered in burn cream and wrapped up all day. It is now starting to blister and turn purple. I hope it heals quickly and doesn't scar too badly.

Oh Melissa! That's awful! I'm so sorry that happened to you. Burns are the worst. I've burned my arms twice on the iron. It sucks...and scars badly. Make sure you keep Mederma on it.
