Avery's surgery

When Avery was about 3 weeks old we noticed a small lump on her back, right under her shoulder blade. We showed it to her pediatrician and he said it was a cyst and we should just watch it for awhile. When she was 11 months old we were getting her out of the tub and realized it was a lot bigger than normal, when we started poking at it we felt a hard lump in it. We took her to the Doctor within a couple of days and he sent us to see a surgeon. Two weeks later we headed to Primary Children's Hospital to meet a surgeon. That's when we decided to have it removed. What they found was called a Lymphatic Vascular Malformation. Basically the area on her back didn't develop correctly and it had produced a small tumor that needed to be removed because it was growing, and the larger it grew the more difficult the surgery would be. The surgery was scheduled for July 1st... Everything went well, the Dr. was able to remove all of it and the biopsy came back perfect. The area produced a lot of lymphatic fluids that needed to be drained to try to help avoid infection, that is why the drain tube was placed in her back. Avery bounced back quickly following surgery and just when we thought we were almost out of the woods... on Wednesday July 8th two days before the tube was scheduled to be removed Avery's body got an infection.
