Hello again. I'm Maggie and I was about 8 years old when this happened to me. I wanted to make a cool picture that involved glue. I was trying to make a heart with multiple types of paper. After I made a heart shape, I wanted to get the heart on right away. So, I grabbed the first glue bottle I saw.
There are millions of different types of glue. So, if you get where I'm going with this, I didn't use the right kind. Instead of Elmer's glue, I ended up using this fabric glue that was hard to get off your hands. I ended up making a big mess and I had to clean it up. Little did I know that my thumb and pointer finger were glued together. I ended up panicking and tried to turn on my tap, to see if that would help. It was boiling hot water. The second I put my hand under the water, I ripped the glue while I was flinching and pulling my hand away from the boiling water. I had no idea what to do.
At least I did learn one thing: use the right type of glue or have someone who can use something and not spill it everywhere help because pain and panicking will occur otherwise.
