PHOTOS: Boys suffer horrific sunburns during day care trip

Tuesday, July 28, 2015
Single mother Shaunna Broadway was horrified to discover her two sons, ages 7 and 5, suffered second and third degree sunburns after a day care trip to a water park.
When Shaunna arrived at 5 p.m. to pick them up from day care, she found the boys, Trey (left) and Conner, were badly sunburned.
Shaunna called the local emergency room, but they couldn't do much until the burns had blistered. Instead, she got Silvadene cream and pain medication the same night.
Shuanna brought her boys to the ER, where the doctors lanced the boils and blisters on their backs, applied cream and sent them home with more pain meds.
After visiting the Hillcrest Medical Center in Claremore, Okla., the boys were eventually flown to Shriners Hospital for Children in Galveston, Texas.
Trey suffered second degree burns and "is doing much better," but Conner, being redheaded with fair skin, suffered second and third degree burns on his back, said Wayne.
Conner was wrapped in a back and chest cast on Monday, and will remain wrapped for at least 72 hours.
Wayne said police and the department of health are currently investigating the matter for criminal neglect.
Wayne also provided photos of the boys before the incident. "Myself and the boys having fun days!" wrote Wayne in an email at ABC.
