Once again, things were not looking any better this morning. We went to the doctor again and were told that the antibiotics are not working (which we knew from the way it looks) and that it would need to be opened and drained to clear the infection. So, we are headed to Seattle Children's tomorrow afternoon to have a surgeon look at it and decide what to do (either drain it or do emergency surgery). We have no idea if we'll just be there for the afternoon or longer, but have decided to leave Jude with a babysitter. For those who don't know, Seattle Children's is about 2 and 1/2 hours away, so this is far from convenient, but necessary to get this taken care of. We are still praying that this can be totally taken care of and we can still go to Michigan. Hopefully we'll know more tomorrow.

As you can see, the redness is very intense. It sticks out so far now too and is obviously causing her discomfort, especially at night. :(
