A word of warning!
"Mike Lyle" wrote K wrote: Bob, very sorry to hear that. By coincidence, my husband did the same last weekend. Though not as bad as yours, it's still a severe infection, and we've had 4 hospital visits since last Monday. I reiterate your advice, don't 'wait and see', get straight to the hospital. Between appointments, his eye seemed to be getting worse, so he went back straight away, and it was most certainly the right thing to do, as they immediately upped him to hourly doses of a stronger antibiotic. And let's all promise one another that we will no longer leave a garden cane standing without a protective ball thing on top -- my grandfather gave himself a nasty eye injury that way. The specs thing's a devil, too: a jab in the eyeball helped me to retrain myself always to shut my eyes when putting them on. Speedy recovery, Bob. And best wishes for a swift recovery to Kay's OH too. I'm thinking a pair of plastic safety specs might be a good extra Christmas stocking filler for all our gardening friends and relatives - as long as they don't jab themselves with those! Using a garden shredder is another time when eye protection is a must. It took one or two near misses with branches suddenly whipping round and smacking me in the face and the odd sharp bit unexpectedly shooting back upwards before I thought to borrow my hubby's DIY safety specs when I got the shredder going. -- Sue |
