Gonna be quiet for a little while

My wife had an accident Thursday. She was cooking dinner and reached over one pot to stir another and her shirt caught on fire.

She has burns on her hands, fingers, chest, neck, back, arms, stomach and ears. Luckily her face was spared. She is extremely lucky that her hair did not catch fire.

Her burns range from 1st to 3rd degree. She has burns on about 10% of her body. She will be OK in the long run, but right now we don’t know the full extent of the damage. The doctors really haven’t said much yet, but they expect her to be hospitalized for at least one week. Apparently it takes 24 hours for the burns to fully develop. The major concerns right now are kidney function and infection. Burns of this degree are extremely painful.

So when this is resolved, I’ll be back. But it’s going to be a while before I’m Q’ing again.
