Gwen’s sun burn story
Submitted by: Gwen Thomas
My story is something that happened to my mum. We were on a family holiday in Wales and it was one of the hottest days of the year, everyone was smothered in cream except my mum who wanted to ‘tan’! We tried telling her she’d burn, but she wouldn’t listen.
Anyway, an hour or two later she was as red as a lobster and in agony. That night she couldn’t sleep, the skin on her legs and shoulders was blistered and raw and she had to visit the doctor who I hope gave her a good telling off!
And the worst thing is she STILL sits in the sun with no protection whatever!!! Thank God the rest of her family have common sense!
