Burny McBurn

I got a sunburn awhile ago. As all of you well know. Last night the pain was so bad on my chest that Kip took me to the ER at about 11pm. We waited for quite awhile and when I was finally seen they told me that "I'm lucky, I won't have to have a skin graft." I was like "Excuse me" That didn't even cross my mind, I just wanted some miracle aloe or some heavy duty neosporin or healing cream. I just wanted them to tell me how to treat it so that it would stop hurting. It hurt to wear a bra and then it hurt not to. It hurt to lay on my back and it hurt to sit. We called Kip's mom, who is a nurse, to ask her opinion on the situation. She told us to try a couple of things and if that didn't work to go to the ER. So we tried those things and I was still in a lot of pain. At the ER they put on what I now refer to as "Fairy Dust" because it's amazing. It's not even a dust, it's a cream. And it's incredible. Instantly it relieved my pain and has continued to work as relief on my chest for the last day. So I'm going to continue using it until my bottle of Fairy Dust is gone! So thank you to the staff at the Saint Luke's Meridian ER. I thought I was going to cry in pain all night, and thanks to them I slept and am well on my way to healing. Kip has a picture of me in my hospital gown that he will post as soon as we can figure out how to get the picture off the phone.
I have to thank my fantastic husband, for remaining calm through my upset. I was crying all night, and he was still very gentle with me and still very concerned for my well being. Even though he had to be up early today, he was willing to take me to the ER and sit with me through the entire night, and then he brought me home, put me in bed, and went to sleep. He only got a few hours of sleep before he had to get up and go golfing. So thank you to my husband for not only being the man of my dreams, but for putting up with me and being my constant support. Mentally, emotionally, and phsycially, you are there for me constantly. I know that I can count on you and I appreciate it more than you will ever know! Thank you for your love.
I love you!

Until next time!
