You live, you learn

OK, so I am well pissed off with my suppurating right hand (though the left is nearly better, apart from some splodgy red marks).

However, I have learnt a lot about treating burns, and in particular have discovered the fabulous Jelonet. What a great product. Ditto Tubigrip.

I have also learnt how to drain blisters with sterile needles (gross) and have used many of the components of the first aid kit I purchased in 1992 to go travelling. M has learnt how to wash a girl in the bath and how to get clever with dressings and micropore tape.

All useful life skills, no? Got to look on the bright side. And I can type again with all but two fingers... hooray!
