Check your family pictures

I didn't check the threads on this board to see if this has been covered but it's worth a re-visit even if it has.

Please examine all your family's holiday photos carefully. Especially look for 'red eye' in BOTH eyes when 'red eye' is present. Especially in the young kids.

I just found out that one of our client's kids (18 month old baby girl) lost an eye to cancer two weeks before Christmas. The cancer was discovered when the baby's gram was looking over pictures of the thanksgiving family gathering.

She noticed that the baby had only one red eye in any picture where red eyes were present. She mentioned it in casual conversation with her DIL and together they checked the internet to see if others had the experience.

That led to emergency surgery. Thank God the cancer was caught with only the loss of the one eye. It could have been much worse. Babies don't know they have lost sight in the eye - and it isn't obvious - even to doting moms.
