Update on Easten.

Alot has happened with Easten in just a couple of days. You all know that he was in the hospital over the weekend. Holly & Rusty brought him home on Sunday and thought everything would get better.
I got a call from Holly on Tuesday afternoon, she was concerned because Eastens stool was BLACK! When we were down at Primarys over the weekend the doctors told Holly that if Eastens stool turned White or Black that it was bad.
Holly took Easten into his primary care doctor, Dr Armstrong and his stool did test postive for blood. This meant that little Easten was bleeding internaly. Dr. Armstrong wanted to take Easten by amublunce to Primary but, Holly said she could get him there quicker.
I met Holly at her house and she was in total panick mode. I took Stetsen to my house and my parents were going to go with Holly to Primarys. They were going to meet Rusty in Brigham.
Just as they were leaving town Holly received a call from the doctor on call @ primarys. They wanted her to turn around and go back to hospital and get all the blood work done here so they had it all ready when they got Easten down there.
The blood work showed that Easten was loosing blood somewhere. His numbers weren't terrible but, not good.
Holly and my mom took Easten down to Primarys and they admitted him. They drained his belly again and this time they couldn't put him out so he had to have a local. They pulled 350cc this time, more than what they got on Saturday. Today His labs look good and they might do a scope down his throat to see if they can find the source of the bleeding. The bad thing is that his liver panel was really low, which means something is going wrong with his liver. This is all I know right now but, I will keep everyone updated.
