As you can see, it burned one thumb pretty good! He went to NextCare and they wanted him to go to the emergency room. He went to Banner Gateway and they looked at it and decided he needed to go see the pro's at the burn unit in Phoenix. They didn't know how deep it went - could have gone as far as the tendon's. They looked at it, said his fingers and right thumb would be okay, but his left thumb would need some extra care. They cut the blister part out and gave him some salve and bandages to put on it and want to see him again on Friday to make sure it doesn't get infected.
This is after he got home. You can see his "tag" and his left thumb. It could have been so much worse. Sorry Ellee for not telling you sooner - it was a very busy day getting ready for the May birthday party, etc.
