Michael was cooking in the kitchen and the pot boiled over so he ran over to the stove to take it off the burner. He slipped, hit his head on the counter, knocked the pot over, spilling the boiling water on the top of his arm, and hit his heel on the floor when he fell. His head hurts and is bleeding, his arm is red and blistered, and his heel hurts and is swollen.
