My OH and his sister have a deep rooted fear of anyone or anything medical.

Their mother has an extreme form of OCD which caused them to have a childhood which I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy.

The OCD is all about disinfectant to ward off terminal diseases. They were never allowed to see a doctor, optician or dentist in case they were 'infected' with a fatal illness.

They are both around the age of 50 and know that it's rubbish, but still can't change their way of thinking.

OH's sister hasn't been registered with a doctor since she left home and has never seen an optician!
