[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 237656, member: 6546"] Hi Heather-- I am so sorry to hear that you are having a tough time. Being the Mom, we are automatically wrong--so I guess if you are a "hypocrit" then you must be doing something right. Sharon beat me to mentioning that even a little eye infection like a sty should not go untreated. My DS gets stys all the time, some more severe than others. Hot compresses usually do the trick, but if they don't, we go to the Dr for Rx eye drops. And DS HATES having drops put in his eyes and really fights me on it. Do you remember the episode of television show "Friends" where Rachel refused to put drops in her eyes? Finally, the eye dr told her it was no big deal...and when did she want to set up her next appointment? Rachel was relieved to hear the drops were "no big deal", until she learned that the 'next appointment' would be to fit her for a glass eye. I pulled that bit on my son... It worked, and now he takes the eye drops whenever he needs them. You may have to let her know just how serious an eye infection can be. If she won't let you look at it, perhaps she will let an opthamologist take a look? --DaisyF [/QUOTE]
