On Monday evening Ginger and her two daughters Elsie (4) and Eliza (14) were preparing to use their at-home S’mores kit (pictured). Ginger set everything on the table by the back door and went back to the fridge, when she reached the kitchen there was an explosion. The heater was empty, but the alcohol and lighter were sitting next to it. For unknown reasons it exploded. Both Elsie and Eliza were airlifted to Vanderbilt burn unit. Eliza was treated and released with 10% burns on her legs. Elsie remains sedated in the PICU, with 70% of her body covered in 2nd and 3rd degree burns. She has folley cath, a feeding tube, multiple iv's of different fluids and vitamins, gabapentin and Tylenol. She is getting dillatud every 3 hrs and oxy scheduled. They had her under heat lamps to get her body temp back up. But, now she is febrile and can't keep her temp down. She is just shaking/tremoring nonstop. She will remain in PICU but the burn team from the adult burn unit is over-seeing everything. She will undergo extensive Physical and Occupational Therapy. She will have special boots for her legs and feet and splints for wrists and under arms. Her boots were delivered today, but caused so much pain she began vomiting and had to be given extra medicine. She has to stop with any food/liquid intake every night -morning in preparation of putting her under anesthesia every morning for awhile to have her wounds cleaned and dressed. At the moment, Vanderbilt is unable to give them a timeline for Elsie’s stay, all they can say is “she’ll be here for a while.” Her little body is fighting hard, the staff is working to keep her vitals normal and burns cleaned. Their health insurance does not cover the airlifting of either daughter and they will be there without work or pay, for who knows how long. The goal is to help, at the least, with food costs and gas of driving back and forth. Ginger volunteers as search & rescue for missing persons with her certified track & trail K9 Sawyer. As of recently her husband Jon went from being a police officer with Owensboro Police Department to Kaiser. However, it’s so recent that he has no FMLA and his insurance already said they will not cover the life flight. He will likely be losing his job in the coming days. Jon & Ginger and focusing on Elsie & Eliza’s health right now.
