Unfortunately, you ended up in that situation when your co-worker made the mistake of lighting a cigarette near flammable fumes. Within seconds, the area you were in was on fire, and you quickly found yourselves in trouble.

As you fled, an explosion happened. You have severe burns and trauma as a result.

You deserve support after a traumatic injury
