Peeling Face

It has now been exactly seven days since my face was turned into a bright tomato. Last Saturday, I was outside at my family's yard sale from about 8:30 to 3:30 in the sunshine with absolutely no sunscreen. I was also wearing my slightly oversized sunglasses the whole day. By the time dinner rolled around, my face hurt to move and I discovered in the mirror that my forehead and nose were extremely burnt (my raccoon eyes were perfectly okay though). I diligently put aloe lotion on both areas for the next two days. When I went back to work on Monday though, the first thing that one of my students asked me was, "Are you hot?" I thought this was a strange question and I answered with a no and why. She said, "Well, your face is really red so I thought you might be hot." This continued on throughout the day as students commented about my red face while they also asked me if I was mad. As the week continued, my face started to peel off. It was actually pretty disgusting, and there seemed to be nothing I could do about it. The comments continued from my students. These are some of the things I heard:
What's wrong with your face Mrs. Austin?
Why is your face coming off?
Why is your skin falling off?
What is wrong with your nose? (the student said as he got super close to my face actually touching my nose)

What's crazy about all this is that most of my students have no personal experiences when it comes to getting burnt and peeling. The couple students that did have this experience were quite excited that they could relate to what I was going through. Hopefully, I have learned my lesson.
On day 7, I am still peeling away.
