There is improvement today. Alan's hemoglobin count came up just a little and he hasn't needed pain meds this morning. Some of the doctors still want to do further investigations, but our surgeon, Dr. Sunshine (real name, by the way), thinks it's best to just keep watching him in ICU. It could resolve on it's own if it was a cyst or vein that ruptured. The blood where it doesn't belong caused the pain and will gradually absorb into the body. Let's hope Dr. Sunshine is right. It's starting to look like he might be!
