A young man sprinkling his lawn and bushes with pesticides wanted to check the contents of the barrel to see how much pesticide remained in it. He raised the cover and lit his lighter; the vapors inflamed and engulfed him. He jumped from his truck, screaming. His neighbor came out of her house with a dozen eggs, yelling: "bring me some eggs!" She broke them, separating the whites from the yolks. The neighbor woman helped her to apply the whites on the young man's face. When the ambulance arrived and when the EMTs saw the young man, they asked who had done this. Everyone pointed to the lady in charge. They congratulated her and said: "You have saved his face." By the end of the summer, the young man brought the lady a bouquet of roses to thank her. His face was like a baby's skin.

Healing Miracle for burns:
Keep in mind this treatment of burns which is included in teaching beginner fireman this method. First aid consists to spraying cold water on the affected area until the heat is reduced and stops burning the layers of skin. Then, spread egg whites on the affected are.
One woman burned a large part of her hand with boiling water. In spite of the pain, she ran cold faucet water on her hand, separated 2 egg white from the yolks, beat them slightly and dipped her hand in the solution. The whites then dried and formed a protective layer.
She later learned that the egg white is a natural collagen and continued during at least one hour to apply layer upon layer of beaten egg white. By afternoon she no longer felt any pain and the next day there was hardly a trace of the burn. 10 days later, no trace was left at all and her skin had regained its normal color. The burned area was totally regenerated thanks to the collagen in the egg whites, a placenta full of vitamins.
This information could be helpful to everyone: Please pass it on.

I can't tell you how many times I forwarded an e-mail, only to have someone [usually my son] forward me a snopes file to prove it wasn't true, and mom-was-wrong-again. Some of them seemed just so important. I fixed my son - I don't forward anything to him anymore.

In burn accidents Flour, if readily available and applied immediately, takes the stinging out of the burn and helps in preventing the formation of blisters. I was making coffee one morning and the small espresso pot slipped out of my fingers, next I had boiling hot coffee all over my hand. I went for the flour, applied it all over my hand and it immediately took the sting away and no blisters ever formed...my hand was just red a few days and that was it, no scarring, nada! True story!

Honey, I know you are on fire but we don't seem to have any eggs in the house. Hillbilly, you have too much time on your hands.

I will sh!t upon the head of my friend. You know, I usually do a snopes.com: Urban Legends Reference Pages on these, but when it came from this felloW, I figuered, it had to be good.

Personally, I have always used Vitamin E on burns and injuries...seems to help healing...

HB

This: snopes.com: Egg Whites Prevent Burns? seems to be a yes and no answer. Some true some false.

Whatever....just trying to help...

Sucks when that happens, and it has happened to me.

How's it feel to have "Egg on your face"........

My autistic sister-in-law, while retrieving a boiling pot of water from the stove, stumbled on my then 4 yr old son, Aroa. The boiling water hit Aroa's shoulder, neck, back and chest. Cold water was immediately applied, and then a balm of the crystalline part o the aloe vera (s?bila) leaf. The later was applied several times subsequently. Aroa shows absolutely no marks from the burn.
