Abstract:
Perhaps nothing ravages the body and spirit quite so fiercely as burns. Burns have no mercy. They can melt away skin, leaving scars that contract and deform the remaining tissue. They can destroy the eyelids, mouth, nose, ears, and even bone. Without a functional mouth, how does one eat? The purpose of this book is to provide knowledge, insight, and self-help to all of us that have suffered the intense and extremely painful experience of body burns. "You will never find a stronger-willed person than a burn survivor, for they have suffered the worst injury to the human body anyone can endure...and survive!"
