All Better

Thomas got the all clear from the doctors at The Shriner's Hospital. All told, his burn took 10 days to heal. So, no scar. We will have to keep his arm covered when he's out in the sun this summer.

The mark turns purplish when his arm is down by his side but when we rub in his moisturizer, it almost completely disappears. Sometimes burn marks get darker before they lighten and disappear but that doesn't seem to be the case with his. I think it will be gone well before a year has passed.

The ordeal is over but I'm still so sad that this happened to him.
