On Saturday after noon my husband Timothy, our brother-in-law David were working on Timothy's Trans Am in the garage. They were changing out the radiator and Quinton was wanting to be with his Daddy all day and help with the car. Well they changed out the radiator took it for a drive to make sure everything was working and got it in the drive way, had to running for a little bit longer and then backed it into the garage and turned off the car. About 15 minutes later, there was a popping noise and boiling antifreeze spraying everywhere.
The antifreeze hit both Timothy and Quinton. Timothy's hip got burned. Quinton got to worst of it. Quinton's right side of his face, and his right arm have first to second degree chemical burns. We rushed straight to the ER and got treated right away, the hardest part was when the medical them had to scrap away the dead skin and debris. Not fun for Mommy and Daddy to listen to. Quinton is a real trooper though. We go and see the burn clinic at Children's on Tuesday sometime.
I am so proud of him. Quinton is still trying to understand what happened. He is almost 3 so he doesn't understand where the "fire water" came from..what he is calling the antifreeze and he doesn't understand why the car hurt him..he loves cars. But we are blessed that Timothy knows so what what Quinton is going through they are burn buddies and Quinton does not want Daddy out of his sight. Timothy leaving for work this morning was tough.
Keep our family in your prayers. Pray that Quinton will heal and that if there is scaring that it will be minimal. We are so blessed and thank God that it wasn't worst.

The majority of CDHs occur on the left side. The hole allows the contents of the abdomen (stomach, intestine, liver, spleen, and kidneys) to go up into the fetal chest. The herniation of these abdominal organs into the chest occupies that space and prevents the lungs from growing to normal size. The growth of both lungs can be affected. This is called pulmonary hypoplasia.
