Lavender Wonders

My badly scalded hand is absolutely fine, thank-you to the most excellent advice of Debbi.
The cheese sauce scald from yesterday covered most of my palm, thumb and lower fingers. I kept it in cold water or holding a semi frozen ice block (rescued from the broken freezer) wrapped in a tea towel. I was like this for about 3 hours and every time I took my hand away from cold it started to warm up and look very angry.

Thank-you so so much to Debbi for advising me to use Lavender essential oil on it.
Within minutes I could feel the burning feeling leave my hand and this morning apart from a 1cm redness in the centre of my palm you wouldn't believe I had been near anything hot!
Debbi advises that the lavender oil also helps prevent blisters and scarring. I will certainly always have some in the house!!

Debbi has a tribute today to remind us all about the importance of freedom on this memorable day.
