Be sure to wear sunscreen this summer

**Osiris** · 07-12-2005, 10:41 PM

Just wanted to share a very important and often neglected topic. SunBurn.

Using the proper sunscreen is also very very important. I did not understand the ratings on them didnt ever think much of it just grabbed one put it on. BUt this past sunday we spent in the dells(city of water parks, rollar coasters, etc.) not a cloud in sky just pure sun. I put on sun screen couple times but spent most of my time in wave pool.

I was admitted to Urgent Care this afternoon for 2nd degree burns from sunburns, it is unbelieable the pain from it. Cannot go to work for 1 week, and can't really wear a shirt. I can only imagine some of the kids are doing that were there as i am sure not all parents are responsible or just didnt think of it.

Please be sure to cover up and especially your kids multiple times and keep in shade, i felt be good story to share with you all.

And don't mind me if i make some weird posts, one of medications they gave me feels weird lol.

Just be sure to read the side effects. Some medications actually increase your sensitivity to sunlight. It increases the chances of sunburn although it helps with the pain of the current burn.

When you are done shedding tell us if you get the urge to nibble on some mice. As long as you dont begin to act like a snake you are welcome here. LOL
