| Thank you! The surgeon has surgery all day so he can't see us. However, Alex's pediatrician has agreed to look at his knee. I know he will tell us if everything is ok or not. Peace of mind is worth a million dollars.

Why choose just one? Go on vacation to a spa, get the massage while eating ice cream and sipping wine.

| Update Ok, well the surgeon couldn't see us today because he is in surgery all day. So, I contacted Alex's pediatrician (whom I trust with all my heart) and asked him to see us. Of course, he agreed. He thinks there is still an infection and put Alex on another round of antibiotics. In addition, he also feels like there is some fluid build up which is causing the area to swell. Needless to say, we are back to seeing the surgeon. Alex has an appointment at 10:30 and we will know more then. The pediatrician seems to think it will need to be drained or packed. Oh Lord we just want this to end. My poor baby has been through it with this knee. Continued prayers are greatly appreciated.

| Maybe a draining or an incision and drainage to properly clean it out with maybe a stitch or two, dressing and antibiotics and some blood work & culture for good measure should finally put him to rights. Hopefully just the draining of the fluid is all that's necessary but if it's very angry or spreading when the surgeon sees it, he may go a bit further. Be prepared for more and that way if just the simple part is all that's necessary, you'll be pleasantly surprised. If it's not much, he'll probably just drain and pill him. I am praying for the latter! When this is all over, you deserve that vacation and the ice cream!
