Dude....

That really sucks. Hope you make a full recovery. Take care of yourself and get better. I really want to give you [bleep] about this, but you are not the first to do something stupid with gasoline, and I'm in that group too. Sounds like you are in good hands, and are counting your blessings - best of luck!
