Bandage Free...technically!

Josh and Elizabeth came home from the Burn Center almost completely bandage free! Praise God for His many, many blessings! Both children have extremely sensitive skin under their compression hose. They both have some small bandages over the most sensitive skin under the hose. Joshua was released to normal activity. Elizabeth is on limited activity for at least another week. The process was not without pain, though both children managed with only Motrin. They are both very tired from the process, but also very glad to be free of the bandages. The healing process will continue now. Please pray that their skin would be less and less sensitive each and every day. They will be seen at the Burn Center again in six weeks. Pray that there would be no scarring from the burns. Pray for increased stamina each day. Praise God for His many blessings!

  2. Hi all,

    I thought of you often yesterday with your trip back to the Burn Center, and wondered if Josh actually went back to school today. Plenty of reasons to continue on our knees in prayer and in thanksgiving! Thank the Lord for His wonderful work in and through your precious family.

    Much love,
    Margie for the Jacksons
