Clarissa Lesueur of Mount Pleasant was four years old when a gasoline tank fell into a nearby fire and caused an explosion that burned parts of her body. T’keyah Robinson of St. Stephen was eight when she bumped into her mom, causing a pot of boiling water to fall on her, burning her face and shoulders. Duane Jenkins of North Charleston was only 11 months old when a house fire burned 85 percent of his body, sending him to Medical University Hospital, where he spent nearly a year in the intensive care unit. These three children, along with 39 others between the ages of six and 17 from across the state, are summer campers at the 12th Annual Camp Can Do this week at Camp St. Christopher on Seabrook Island. Camp Can Do is a five day camp specifically designed for children who have suffered a burn injury. Read more about the camp in Thursday's editions of The Post and Courier. |
