Yeah I also got burned sitting by a camp fire. I reached down to touch my knee and it was mushy from a blister. Ewww! It's so gross to feel something like that...that you can't...feel. It is startling, to say the least. And then the time it takes to heal!

I was sitting close to it and couldn't feel the heat. To make a long story short, I had to get a skin graft because it was so huge and wouldn't heal. When I had surgery they didn't put me completely t**o sleep. Just enough to relax me and keep my legs from spasms. Talked to them the whole time even while they scraped skin off my other leg. It surely is amazing what we go through without feeling it. * *Before that, I spilled a very hot cup of coffee on my belly. I spent 2 weeks in the burn unit over that one. They sent me home still scraping and wrapping the burns.* *Diane* ------------------------------ AOL now offers free email to everyone.
