SCHICKSALE - Augenlicht in Gefahr: Ein kleiner Ratscher in die Haut verursacht bei Claire Taylor eine gefährliche Infektion
Claire and Carmen most recently (PA Real Life/Collect) *** Mum releases shocking pictures showing how a tiny cut sparked a
dangerous infection that left doctors fearing she would lose her
eye
By Erin Cardiff, PA Real Life
A mum has released shocking pictures showing how a tiny cut sparked a dangerous
skin infection that caused her head to balloon and left doctors fearing she would lose
her eye.
Initially, Claire Taylor, 47, thought little of it when she caught herself on a car door
one day in July 2019, sustaining a tiny cut to the corner of her left eye.
But within 36 hours, her face had swollen dramatically and she had become delirious,
drifting in and out of consciousness.
Claire, a single mum from Basildon in Essex said: "It was horrendous. I was so out of
it."
The only other person at home with Claire was her daughter Carmen, then six, who
did not realise how ill her mum was.
But luckily the little girl managed to open the door to a friend of Claires - who had
become concerned after hearing how groggy she sounded on the phone - and
paramedics were called.
She was blue-lighted to hospital and diagnosed with cellulitis a potentially serious
infection affecting the deeper layers of the skin.
Despite medics fearing she would lose her left eye, she managed to keep it - but has
been left with ongoing balance problems after the build-up of fluid and pressure
affected her brain.
Claire, who has now rebuilt her life and become a fashion designer, said: "If my friend
hadnt decided to check on me, I believe without a doubt Id be dead.
Poor Carmen would have been in the house with me. It doesnt bear thinking about.
She was petrified and didnt want to look at me for a while when my eye was still
swollen.
Ive spoken to her since and explained how to call 999 and what to sa y and now I
want to spread the message to other parents that its important kids know what to do
in an emergency.
Ive always thought life is for living so its really shockin

By Erin Cardiff, PA Real Life
A mum has released shocking pictures showing how a tiny cut sparked a dangerous
skin infection that caused her head to balloon and left doctors fearing she would lose
her eye.
Initially, Claire Taylor, 47, thought little of it when she caught herself on a car door
one day in July 2019, sustaining a tiny cut to the corner of her left eye.
But within 36 hours, her face had swollen dramatically and she had become delirious,
drifting in and out of consciousness.
Claire, a single mum from Basildon in Essex said: "It was horrendous. I was so out of
it."
The only other person at home with Claire was her daughter Carmen, then six, who
did not realise how ill her mum was.
But luckily the little girl managed to open the door to a friend of Claires - who had
become concerned after hearing how groggy she sounded on the phone - and
paramedics were called.
She was blue-lighted to hospital and diagnosed with cellulitis a potentially serious
infection affecting the deeper layers of the skin.
Despite medics fearing she would lose her left eye, she managed to keep it - but has
