You should also be able to ask for a sucker to get the eye out at night, there is a little picture of the sucker we use. I do know that removing the shell every day can sometimes cause more infections and problems than if you were to leave it in for a longer period but I can't say for sure how long would be too long. I know if we leave Joel's in over night, his eye is very irritated in the morning. <br /><br />Please email me any time traciereinikka@westnet.com.autraciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04033725773407398753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7808146268393461519.post-50358146641137990882011-12-06T01:52:04.438-08:002011-12-06T01:52:04.438-08:00Hi!
How is joel doing?
I am transferred to a remot...Hi!<br />How is joel doing?<br />I am transferred to a remote village and even internet is accessbile only if i travel for one hour.<br />I read your latest posts and understood that you have had a new baby. Congrats!<br />Joel looks very cute,confident and cheerful.<br /><br />Please clarify the following.<br /><br />The shell fixed to my son is not custom made.<br />It is transferant and over sized. Many time i could see the tears between the shell and the cornea. My doctors simply say, " remove in the night. fix in the morning. clean often. come after six months."<br />Please tell me <br />1.The impact of the size mismatch<br />2.Now my son is 15 months old. When should we fix the custom made shell like your son's?<br />3.Should i remove this readymade shell everyday and clean?<br />4.Should we leave the eye without this shell in the night?<br />5.I am using a drops prescribed by the doctor and going to the clinic once in a month.I am unable to remove the shell. It is very tight. In the clinic also they struggle much to remove it.For the last 10 days he had a severe infaction. When the nurse removed the shell, lot of discharge poured like the pus in the wound. It was horrible. Please tell me how can i prevent it in future.<br /><br />I am worried. The doctors simply say " come after six months"<br /><br />Just a check up after six months is enough?<br /><br />6.Is it painful for my son to wear this shell?.He rubs his eyes often.<br /><br />Please give ur email. Mine is seriouslysportive@gmail.com,<br /><br />My namne is Muthuvel<br />My son is Rudhran.<br /><br />My wife conveys her wishes to your family on the arrival of the new member to your family.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7808146268393461519.post-17472863746002273012011-11-16T02:40:44.618-08:002011-11-16T02:40:44.618-08:00Such a beautiful boy!

Very natural looking! I...It really does look great. Very natural looking! I had to look at your older pictures to see which eye was affected to make sure I was looking at the prosthetic eye. <br /><br />I am so happy that you have found a way to insert the eye by yourself. I am now able to insert a contact lens without assistance in Austin. Not near as a big a deal as a whole eye, but it still makes life easier for all of us.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03353348563867255015noreply@blogger.com
