South Cariboo girl recuperating following failed science experiment
100 MILE HOUSE — It will be a long road to recovery for a South Cariboo girl badly burned during a failed science experiment.
Eleven year old Presley Peterson, a student at 108 Mile Elementary School, suffered the mishap at home on June 18 as she tested her project.
The incident landed her in BC Children’s Hospital in Vancouver immediately afterwards where her mother Karen has been at her side ever since.
A GoFundMe page was launched to help the single mother manage her expenses and has already raised over $22,000. You can access the page by clicking here.
