Good to see reki and breath work, are your “priority this week” not your injured child.

Love how the ‘follower’ asks how Kate is first too:

‘How are you and how’s Olive doing?’

I burnt my foot on my straightners a few months ago and the few days after it was so painful once the skin started to knit back together, can’t imagine how olives poor leg feels.
Also little ones rethink about things and get upset even if it happened ages ago (my girl cried last week about her balloon from McDonald’s bursting which happened in March) so O will likely get re upset again when she goes to school if the teacher ask if she’s okay or make a fuss to her.
Making her walk around an uneven and cold pumpkin patch dressed like a WW2 child isn’t fair her wee leg would have been throbbing. She’s such a bleep
 
If that was one of my kids I wouldn’t let them go back to “school” until they were fully healed. Olive doesn’t even NEED to be at nursery it’s not compulsory for her. I’d just be at home with my kid in pj’s on the sofa watching films or doing some colouring or puzzles or something. Maybe a short walk for some fresh air each day if they felt up to it. Kate’s a fat bleep
 
My friend's son spilled a hot drink on his lap when he was about 10 and because of the position of the burn being at the top of his of thigh and underpants area, he was questioned regarding physical and secual abuse at the children's hospital. There's no way Alder Hey haven't investigated or referred this. Accidents do happen of course but with this absolute simpleton, I'd put all my money on Olive being injured due to her mother's negligence.
 
I’ve ummed and ahhed about posting this as it still
horrifies me, but it’s relevant in the social services way. Back in May my daughter who was 5 had a horrible accident at home. She tripped over her own feet as she was walking through the lounge and landed on our family dog (who we’d had from 8 weeks old and was as soft as anything). Dog was asleep and reacted really badly as it woke and growled and bit her. This happened so quickly right in front of my face and my other children.
I immediately went into “manage role” and in the space of ten minutes my daughter was at a&e (bite was very deep and on her face). Her dad took her there whilst I sadly took our dog to be rehomed, I knew from my work that a social services and police investigation would happen for a dog bite.
It was hands down the worst day of my life, saying goodbye to my fur baby and feeling like my heart would break, whilst worrying about my daughter.
My daughter was transferred to a specialist plastic surgery hospital and had surgery the following day. Before we were allowed out of the hospital they had to follow up with social services that It was okay to do so which made me feel horrendous.
Two days later we were just coming to terms with it when the police showed up on our doorstep as it’s standard practice to report dog bites. Because I had been in such a state at rehoming her I had signed paperwork and not even taken it with me, so I had no “proof” our dog wasn’t at home. They searched my house to check I wasn’t hiding the dog, and didn’t close the case for a week until they’d run checks with the rehoming centre. Looking back now, I would never have allowed them to treat us like that if I had not been running on no sleep, emotionally exhausted and wracked with guilt. Of course it was all closed down and nothing more came of it, but it made a stressful
Time worse.
I also never once took any photos of my daughter in hospital or recovering, in fact I’ve barely told
Anyone what happened as I’m so ashamed still. Even though it wasn’t my fault I feel as her mum I should’ve done more. Her scar is healing beautifully and fading well, which they said would happen as she’s young and as long as I look after it, which meant not sending her back to school until stitches had healed and risk of infection was gone.
In a previous incarnation I worked for the coroner's office and handled a dog attack fatality. It's really stayed with me, it was a horrific case, and the worst part was, the statement from the partner of the person who died said that the dogs had snapped and gone for other family members in the past but they'd not done anything about it. I applaud you for doing the safest thing for your family despite how hard it must have been.

Yes Truff, we know you love hair masks. Show us the instructions where it tells you how long to leave them on for, is it 4 days?

The only thing that makes any sense is that she’s massively exaggerating how bad it is, if she was going back daily for dressing changes and skin removal there’s no way she’d be running round a pumpkin patch and be ok to be sent to nursery (not to mention that I don’t believe she could hold herself back from posting pics every time she was there).

Oh, and if someone is looking for special make up they’re not after BPerfect
 
Hold up. When the bandage is on and the air can get at it... 🙃
They take skin off every dressing change? Is that normal? I've had a burn myself that I had to go the hospital for ans returned multiple times for a couple of weeks where they applied a gel and a new dressing but the skin was never removed so unlike truff, I am no Skin Expert!
I've got 2 kids and granted I haven't been in this situation but she went for a scan when trollive suffered such a nasty burn? Is that normal?

She probably means a scan at her brothers dodgy shop
 
I spent yesterday in A+E getting treated for burns on my hand. They were agony and now my hand is in a massive bandage and I go back in a few days to get it changed. That poor wee lassie will be in agony. I have felt sick for days. Praying that she heals soon.
There will def be pedeatric liaison form raised. There will be one for me even tho my son was with his dad.
