Bruce Jenner & Seafoam Circles

.
First, I want to apologize for making fun of Bruce Jenner in this entry. "Anonymous" alerted me to this fact, confirmed by Wikipedia:

In 2005 Jenner was sleeping in his New Hampshire cottage when he awoke engulfed in flames. After escaping with his dog, Jenner suffered third degree burns on 85% of his body. After three months in the hospital he recovered and received several reconstructive surgeries and was released April 12, 2005 from Valley Regional Hospital.


(Note to self: clean scanner!)

This will be embellished and framed, hopefully this weekend. This is a pattern from one of Erica Fortgens' books. Somehow I started doing the outer border a little differently over the years, but this is how she designed it and I like it a bit better - go figure! I know I've said my work is more contrasty this year but this remains one of my favorite threads and definitely a favorite monochromatic thread/paper combination.

I'm wondering if that Bruce Jenner fire story is really true. Wikipedia isn't the most reliable source and I cannot find any mention of it anywhere else. You'd think that it would have been a big story.

Sharon - I admit that I took the Wikipedia entry with a grain of salt, but didn't have time to research it further this morning. There's no mention of it on Bruce Jenner's site but it's mostly professional stuff. I shall report back my findings - or anyone else, feel free to post sources here.

Oh dear. In trying to track down confirmation of Bruce Jenner surviving a fire, I found this site.

One would think this event would be easier to find, if true. And like Sharon said, despite having a Middle Aged Brain, I think I'd remember this event, as big of a deal as Bruce was to a lot of us back in the day.

I don't think the fire rumor is accurate either. Either way, he should get a refund from the surgeon!

I don't believe the fire rumor about bruce jenner, there are photos of him here:

I also checked wikipedia and it appears that they changed his bio and it no longer contains the fire story.
