Children Burned by Hot Coffee
A 15 month old girl is brought to your emergency department by her nanny with burns isolated to the area shown in this photograph. The history is that the toddler accidentally pulled a cup of hot coffee from the bench down on herself. A MUM whose baby girl was scarred after being scalded by coffee is backing a new awareness campaign. Faye Holdsworth, 36, from Colchester, endured a mother’s worst nightmare when a tray of drinks toppled and spilt on to Georgia-May. Georgia-May, six months old at the time, has been left scarred. She has had skin grafts on her thigh at Broomfield Hospital, in Chelmsford, and has to wear silicon dressings on injuries to her arms, legs and chest. Georgia-May, now 21 months, suffered 17.5 per cent burns. More skin grafts will be required throughout her growth, as scar tissue does not stretch in the usual way. The incident happened at a restaurant at Cambridge’s Addenbrooke’s Hospital. |
