We never know when, where or what will be the catalyst for recovery. Losing an eye is a very scary prospect......blind......certainly life altering.
As mothers, we will always love our children....unconditionally....no matter what they do. A mother's love cannot be judged or mocked. It is just there. EVEN IF anyone here feels you made a mistake in assisting your son.....it was yours to make.....not theirs. We walk a fine line between loving and enabling and no one can do it perfectly.
I, too, probably would have provided assistance to someone I love who had a physical injury that could result in the loss of an eye.
Gentle hugs to you and hope that your son's eye recovers fully
