Giancarlo pictured at home during his recovery, wearing his compression garments - A mother-of-three has revealed how her 10-month-old son was severely burnt at nursery. In February this year, Giancarlo Enzo Ramis, now one, knocked a pot of scalding water over himself and suffered second, third and fourth degree burns to 35% of his body. He was hospitalised for over six weeks and endured numerous extensive surgeries. Eight months on from his traumatic ordeal, Giancarlo is on the road to recovery and has even taken his first ever steps. Now, his mum, Eileen Martin-Hidalgo, 40, is speaking out to raise awareness for burns survivors.
