nothing like visiting the Doctor twice in 3 days...

This was definitely a difficult past week for me. So my last post I mentioned I wasn't feeling well so on Monday I attempted to go to school and just didn't feel well so I want home. Nervous that I was getting Bronchitis I decided to go to the Dr.  So I went to the doctor and he gave me some anti-botics and sent me to get a chest x ray and some blood drawn. Well the blood test came back negative and so did the chest x ray which means I just had a really bad cold. So I went to school Tuesday. On Wednesday I woke up ready to go to school and was going to take a warm shower. I turned the water heater off because it had been on  and turned the water over to warm. I then went to get into the shower when a surge of pressure came and popped the shower head off of the hose and scorching water came shooting off and it hit my right hand. Immediately I took my hand and put it in colder water and then went to go find some ointment for the mild burns that i thought I had. Well one of my coworkers that lives upstairs came down and looked at my hand and came to put some aloe on it saw that it had already started blistering all over my hand and we decided I should go back to the Doctor to get it checked out. So I want back to the Dr. and He said I had two degree burns on my hand and gave me a stronger pain killer and some ointment to put on once the blisters started drying out. It was impossible to move my right hand because of all the burns. I have had to learn to do a lot of things left handed like wash dishes, cook, clean, do my hair, write, pay and carry things and open cans up. TO say the least I have gotten pretty good at it now. My blisters have started going down and I can not do certain things with my hand. I am starting to be able to write sort of and I can now type and grip bigger things. Praise the Lord it wasn't worse off and that it healed quickly despite my body fighting another infection.

Prayer Request
- continue to pray for my cold as I am still getting over it and my hand as it continues to heal
- for saying goodbyes
- Pray for my best friend Nana as he is trying to get a trip planned for his soccer program to Sweden and things are just not going smoothly.
- pray for the school as we continue to go to court.
- pray for each family that is leaving ( moving, different schools)
-Pray for each student that I will have next year and their families
