Narrative:
I burned my 2 hands, while trying to deliver 2 cups of hot tea. I had been on medication for infectious diarrhea/parasites and had not been feeling very well. I was weak, dizzy, etc, and as is turned from the galley to the aisle (quickly), I lost my stability and spilled all the hot water over my 2 hands.
