Must not have been a good night for performing.

One of my snake handles apparently had fuel, and when I lit up for the finale, it went up as well.

I was just lucky I wear leather gloves, and only got a small 2nd, otherwise I could've had something like what Ben got.

Loki, a strong batch of barely cool black will help to take the worst of the sting out of that.

Soak a soft cotton cloth in it and put it on for about 20 minutes at a time.

Thanks for being careful fNi hug



Yeah Gidg but heres the thing not only did it happen fast, as these things do, but when it happened I was facing my saftey and seeing as it was my back it took her a few seconds of me being on fire before I turned and she could see the flames on my back and by the time she was able to get to me they had gone out on thier own........I dont blame her it was the circumstances of the whole thing shrug



Thanks Spirt I'll keep that in mind......where can I get something like that? Herbal/Natural store or something?



Anyway I sent Doc Lightning a PM yesterday and had him look at the picture.....he diagnosed it, correctly as a third degree burn and told me to seek medical treatment immediately. So needless to say I spent three and a half hours at the emergency room last night and left there in more pain than when I arrived. They thuroughly scrubbed it clean and gave me this really good burn cream to put on it and advised me to either come back in three days for a check on the burn, for infection and all, or see my primary care docter but seeing as I'm poor and have no insurance I dont have a primary care doc and also in three days I'll be at WildFire.

Hmmmmmmmm hey fNi do you thing Grisha would be willing to help me with that at WF? Actually I'm pretty sure he would be more than happy to check it out and change my dressing for me, he's a pretty cool guy.

Grisha would probably be more than willing to help you, however he might also (rightly) recommend going to the hospital

The grocery store, silly!

Regular old Lipton or Tetley works just fine!
Says orange pekoe and black tea right on the box.
If you happen to see one that is just plain black tea...
great...but not necessary.

Sounds like to me that maybe you'd better just stick with the burn cream though. Didn't realize that you got a 3rd degree there. I'd hate to recommend something and then for you to end up with an infection.

But, for future reference for less severe burns, try the tea.

Already went to the hospital I just need him to check it for infection and help me change the dressing seeing as I cant reach where it is to do it myself. Seeing as he's a doctor I think he can just check it but if he sees sign of an infection then yes I definately would have to go back to the hospital. Besides I wouldn't want to miss any of the fun at WF and go sit in an ER for hours to get it checked ubblol

*slaps self on forehead*
DUH!!!!!! I read that first thing after waking up this morning Spirit of course its tea......
*feels slightly stupid*
Yeah I think I'll stick to the cream and pray that it doesn't get infected wink but I'll keep that in mind for the future hug

Well Loki, I'm glad to hear that you had fire safety at hand. If you had not I would have had to have a very LONG and SERIOUS discussion with you. Something just can't be helped

Oneof the reasons that I like our Fire and Drum Jam is because we normally have to fire safety. It makes watching the performer and keeping an eye out on the audience a lot easier.
