Refusal of medical treatment = blindness

Maureen 💜

Hi 

Any advice would be amazing. 
my daughter has a PDA profile and has refused to treat an eye infection. She has been told today that she has permanent damage in her right eye and the left could go the same way. She refuses the eye drops and cleaning regime and I’m at my wits end. 

can anyone relate?

  • I'm sorry to hear about your situation. That can't be nice for either of you to be going through. 

    I highly suggest you to call the GP and he/she will be able to offer support and help, likely a specialist who will be able to talk to your daughter and get her to accept treatment. 

    Do this tomorrow. If she loses her sight she will really miss it. 

    Good luck both!
