Hot Soup - week 3

Today is 3 weeks since the incident known as "Hot Soup" occurred. We met with Dr. Geissler yesterday who stared for a few moments at her burn and said, "Well, we've come this far, might as well just continue with what we are doing." Fine with me! He did say that we can stop the whirlpool treatments (YIPPEE!) and that he'll check her again in a week. According to him, burns are supposed to heal completely in 3 weeks and hers hasn't. I asked if because of this, it was considered a 3rd degree burn and he said no, just a deep, severe 2nd degree. So, today marked the first day Rachel felt brave enough to join her sisters out in the snow. Luckily Daddy's boot was a perfect fit and she, Aubrey & Lauren frolicked in the front yard slipping and skating on the ice. What a welcome sight!
