I accidently hurt myself yesterday. I was cleaning up my bathroom and decided that I would use my belt-sander to clean the accumulation of dirt off the floor. So I set the sander down on the floor and went to plug it in... The sander was on and it zipped right down the floor and ran into my foot!!! I started screaming and shrieked so loud that the mirror over the vanity broke into lots of large pieces and 2 of the shards of glass hit my other foot. I decided that I needed to call 911 because I didn't want to take any chances, but before I could I knocked over the hibachi that I use in my bathtub and the flames caught onto my shower curtain. I grabbed the flaming shower curtain to keep the flames from catching to the ceiling and my hair and shirt caught on fire. The bad thing is that my Tshirt was 50% polyester and 50% cotton so it ended up melting rather than burning and burned me very badly. I opened the toilet lid and started splashing water on my wounds and to cool myself from the burning feeling and forgot that I had forgot to flush the toilet after using a large amount of industrial toilet cleaner! It ended up stinging all my wounds and now they're getting infected. What should I do?
