A mistake on my part, I left a lamp on that had an exposed light bulb. Of course, Lucas was attracted to it and placed his whole right hand on it. Burnt his hand quite a bit. I thought ice and some neosporin and a band aid might be ok, but I called the doctors just in case. They asked if any skin had fallen off, and I said yes. To that they replied that they would have to look at it but most likely we would be sent to the burn unit in Bridgeport. That all seemed a bit much for a lightbulb, but I went down so they could look at it.
Turns out, it is very minor (as we thought) but they were able to give us a prescription cream to help the burn and prevent infection. Unfortunately it is his right hand, but he is doing pretty well.
