My daughters gone to hospitalGot home from work at 7pm to find my daughter had just burnt her leg.  The girls had been wanting the swimming pool out & so hubby got it out & set it up for them, he filled it with cold water & put the kettle in the garage on to boil. When it boiled my daughter (9) took it from the garage & to the pool  (hubby didn't know) & as she went to pour it in the pool at arms length, she somehow spilt it all down her leg. Hubby immediately dunked her in the cold pool & then contacted NHS direct. They were nice & helpful (as always )& he has now taken her to A&E. It is not blistered but is quite a big area & is obviously red & very sore. Just gone to get it checked.

Ouch! And after she had tried to be as careful as she could as well. : / Glad it's not worse (though it hurts). Not exactly the pool-dip they wanted, either. |

Ouch I'm sorry, Smudgley. Glad she's ok, but it's never nice when your child gets hurt, regardless of whether or not it's dangerous...Big hugs to you, she's in my thoughts. |

Sorry to hear about your daughter Smudgley......it will be sore for a while but as it didn't blister, hopefully there will be no scarring. Keep us informed how she is....and ((((hugs)))) to you and your daughter... |

Shes back already & munching on a McDonalds  they sent them straight in as it was a burn. Nurse said John did the right thing to dunk her in the cold water & leave her there for ages (even though it made her dither) as it stopped it from blistering. She has put some cream on & strapped it all up & she has an appointment to go back tomorrow at 10.02am  to get it rechecked. Same nurse will be on & John said she was really good. Looks like no serious harm done - just sore. |

So pleased it all turned out well and a MacDonalds at the end of it too. Good on your hubby for acting so quickly. |

Good and quick thinking on your hubby's part. I'm happy your little one will be OK. Burns are scary but hopefully it'll be a lesson for her to be even more careful, poor thing. |
