My dad's update

They let Dean out of the hospital tonight at 6:45 p.m. His hemoglobin count was up to 11.8

They did another test today where he had to drink this wonderful chalky stuff so they could trace it through his system using x-ray. That test came back clean also. They are still baffled as to where he is bleeding.

He has to go to the hospital on Saturday morning to have blood drawn again to test the hemoglobin count. On Tuesday he needs to have another test done using nuclear medicine called a Meckel Scan.

The nurses kept calling Dean their "mystery man" because they couldn't understand how he could have been walking when he was admitted and because all the tests kept coming back with no abnormalities, which is good!

At this point, it's wait and see.

Thanks to everyone for their well wishes! It is very, very much appreciated!
