however, more and more people do survive with that and even more .....
but its debilitating....I hope for this poor woman it wasn't her face or her hands....
The premise of "The Road" was that the little boy grew up good and loving even despite those circumstances, that people are innately good....
I question that everyday when you read about the horrific acts carried out by "humans".
Back in the 1960s, my father's close friend was jumped by three black youths at a bus stop and set afire. They doused him with gasoline and lit him up. He survived, but underwent painful skin grafts for a couple years. Lost the use of one arm and hand. He'd often put my hand to his neck and cheek and told me I was feeling his ass, and laugh a hearty laugh. Yep, he got skin grafts from his buttocks to cover burned areas on his upper body. He was a fighter and survivor, continued working even with only one good arm.
