Have you ever been burned or scalded before?

A couple of months ago, I was taking a pizza out of the oven, and I didn't realize that the oven mitt I was using had a hole in it 😬.

When I was a kid I was standing next to a BBQ when someone walked behind me and I fell on it. Well, my hand stopped my fall and that got pretty badly burned.

Then a few years ago I had put a poptart in the toaster. It popped off course and a few minutes later I took it out. It burst in my hand causing a third degree burn blistering along the life line and when the blister popped it was a quite a deep burn. I had to call in sick for work that morning.
I should have gone to the ER but I knew the nurse that was on that morning and chose to do the first aide myself. Admitting what had happened to her would cause no end of embarrassement.
