Mom war:ns about hidden bath toy danger after her toddler nearly loses his vision…\n

Bath time is a favorite part of most children\u2019s days, when they may splash around, play, and have fun. But for one Illinois family, a harmless bath toy almost cost their little son his sight, resulting in a horrific ordeal that has left them desperate to warn other parents.\n

Eden Strong was giving her 2-year-old son Baylor his normal bath when she noticed his eye was inflamed.
\n\"\"\n

She didn\u2019t think much of it as a result of having water in his eye. However, after 12 hours, Baylor\u2019s condition deteriorated significantly.\n

\u201cHis eye was protruding from his face,\u201d Eden recounted in a viral Facebook post. \u201cIt was very obscured. He was running a raging fever.\u201d\n

Baylor was suffering from a potentially serious bacterial skin illness known as cellulitis. Who is to blame? A normal squeezable bath toy\n

\u201cI came to find out later that because the water is never fully expelled from those types of toys, they can just grow bacteria that you can\u2019t stop,\u201d Eden explained.
\nThose innocent-looking bath toys that toddlers adore had become a breeding ground for hazardous bacteria, and it almost cost little Baylor his sight.\n

\u201cThey warned me that he may lose vision in the worse eye, but in the end, thank the Lord his eyes healed,\u201d said Eden, who posted sh0cking photographs of Baylor\u2019s bulging, infected eye to warn other parents.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
